Another day of sunshine and temps into the 40s? The thaw continues! Somebody reminded us that it was 65 degrees a year ago today and the didn't put us in the right mood to start our day. But, hey, whatever, it's sunny and warm and the snow is still melting. Let's rejoice. Lows fall into the mid-20s tonight, so stay bundled up, but the weekend ahead is looking nice. Because that same person who reminded us how warm it was a year ago also reminded us that we're currently in the 7th-longest streak without a day above 50 degrees (and counting).
