Nice ride this morning with clear skies and dry roads, but temps were about 25 degrees colder than yesterday, hovering at the freezing mark. I overdressed a bit and got a bit more sweaty than I like, but I was comfortable.

I hope that I can ride tomorrow because it's looking more and more likely that we will be hit by a winter storm Friday night and into Saturday. We don't get much snow in this part of NC, but some of the models are saying we could get 8" or more, depending on the storm track. Based on previous experiences, that would probably keep me off my bike for about a week. Due to our usual lack of snow, our city does not have an abundance of plows and other equipment for clearing the streets. Although snow usually melts pretty quickly here, it also tends to refreeze during the night, creating treacherous driving conditions in the mornings for quite a few days.
