I really wanted to ride today but decided it wasn't worth the risk. A winter storm is brewing in the Southeast and it's supposed to start reaching NC this afternoon. Yesterday forecasters were saying the rain/sleet/snow wouldn't start until 7-8 pm, allowing me just enough time to make it home this afternoon. However, this morning the forecasters are saying precipitation might start soon as noon today. My afternoon commute takes about 1:15 hours this time of year, so that's just too long to be riding in sketchy conditions at best. Unfortunately, if the storm materializes as predicted, I might be off the road for as long as a week.
