It should reach 80 NW of Phoenix today, but I don't call it Spring until the smell of citrus blossoms fills the air.

Rode to work this morning at 7am in shorts and short sleeves. The flowery smells of spring are in the air, just not citrus yet.

Rode to the office this morning from Port Authority and stayed dry essentially, but it was coming down as we left early. Managed to escape the city just as the roads here in Jersey are getting blanketed.
