It seems only fitting we have sub-freezing temperatures around here on the cusp of spring. The average temperature for this time of year is 49 degrees, so we're doubly glad we haven't stowed the humidifiers as the mercury isn't even expected to reach 30 today. The cool side of the pillow is that we should see some sunshine peeking through the clouds. The winds that helped facilitate the plummeting temperatures last night are still around, making things even less tolerable. Let's add an extra layer and move on.
