With days like today we don't need to be working ourselves for the transition to spring. The sun is out today and will be warming the area as we move forward, with a high temperature that could reach 50 degrees. But it will be fleeting as the winds will once again pick up and gust up to 30 mph at times and a cold front enters the area into evening, bringing a chance of precipitation with it.
