We had a bunch of storms overnight but the showers appeared to be past when I got up. The weather forecast called for morning storms and warm temps (60s F) with clear skies this afternoon, so I decided to go for it. I checked the radar, and there appeared to be a nice "window" in the showers, so I headed to work at 6:30 am with just a light jersey and vest. Of course, a half-mile from my house it started raining pretty heavy, so I headed back home. The radar was still showing no rain over the city, so I put on my rain coat and headed out again. It rained lightly off and on the whole way to work, but not enough to get my feet wet. Hopefully the afternoon commute will make it worthwhile as the weather is supposed to be sunny and warm. It was already 60 F at 6 am, but I rode into a stiff headwind all the way to work.
