Today's Weather: Thaw the Turkey

By Chuck Sudo in Miscellaneous on Feb 13, 2011 2:30PM

God, it was nice outside yesterday. But, despite the warmer temperatures, we thought it would have been sloppier outside. Not so much, actually. The forecasters are calling for the post-blizzard thaw to begin in earnest today, with a predicted high of 41 degrees, more sun than clouds this afternoon and winds gusting up to 30 MPH out of the southwest. Still way better than sub-zero or single digit temperatures.
