Another morning, more clouds 

[Silver Meteor]

Cold and cloudy for the East, warm, sunny and dry for the West, that pretty much describes this winter. Snowfall in the Rockies has been much below normal with some resorts now closing early. Brighton, Utah which I follow regularly has had 233" of snow so far while the full season average is 500". Down in the Salt Lake Valley my cousin says only 1" this winter. Could be water shortages ahead. Currently an historic heat wave is underway with temps at monthly extremes. Here in Eastern North Carolina 28F yesterday and 30F this morning, very cold for us.

16 yesterday morning will probably be the last teens for this spring but freezes will probably extend into early May.

Need sun and warmth. ‘Cause everything else kinda sucks these days.

Even the sun makes the cold feel kinda warm at this point... still wouldn't mind biking to work without being bundled up!

What kind of bike do you have? Got a trek fx 2 recently and it def beats my Roscoe on pavement. Could use a slightly lower gear ratio for some of the more punchy climbs, though.

Clearing to the south, but the blue ridge has different plans. Central VA might be an underrated place to live. They’re far enough south and east to be significantly less impacted by the clouds produced by the Great Lakes and Appalachian’s, but far enough north to get snow every now and then.

I'm the wrong guy for this conversation actually haha - I just take the DC Bikeshare bikes!

I have like a ~7minute bike commute so I haven't invested in any real gear minus a good helmet. Wouldn't recommend the non-electric D.C. bikes for anything other than super flat terrain. Super clunky bikes.
