Topping out in the upper 50sF here in Boston ... getting an early blast of Canadian dry cold weather. No rain in sight for several weeks now

41 degrees F, 6 mph wind, this morning in Pittsburgh. National Weather says that's a wind chill of 37 degrees. It was a little rough transition.

Low 50F the past 4 days in the morning to end the week. Temps will inch up a few more degrees during my morning commute this coming week but not by much. 80's in the afternoons.

This time of year is hilarious. 8°C on my ride into work, 28°C on my way home. Adding my work clothes to the mix, that's three outfits for the day. 🙄

We had a cold snap last week. Riding to a Dr. appointment at 9am, it was 17F (-8C) when I left. It had been in the 40 the days before, so I wasn't really prepared and was chilly the whole way.

I woke up ready to pull out my cold weather gear and go ride at 35°F. When I checked the weather, it was already up to 40° and heading to 70°. Maybe I'll wait a few hours.

Here in Boston, it was in the 20Fs this morning, but it's supposed to hit record-high temperatures for the next two weeks - upper 50s and 60s
