I was hoping to get back on my bike today after a weekend of miserable weather. We had a cold rain all day Saturday that turned to snow by afternoon. The snow didn't accumulate much but made the roads unsafe for riding on Sunday because there was black ice and it never got above freezing. Monday was just plain cold and windy with a morning low of 15 and high around freezing. So, the temperatures were supposed to moderate some today and I planned to ride, except weather once again intervened. Some light rain started moving through the area shortly before I normally leave for work, and with the temperatures still well below freezing, it didn't seem safe to ride my bike. It was cold enough for the rain to freeze, and I didn't feel like wiping out in cold and dark. Maybe tomorrow.
