Same for here in Germany. It just doesn't want to break. Ah well, that's how it goes. This time last year it was horribly cold and we were buried in snow. |

Sunday, I rode nearly 400 miles. It was 75 degrees and beautiful. Yesterday, it was 75 degrees and beautiful after some sprinkles early morning. By 3 pm it was windy and cooler. This morning it is 39 degrees. It is not supposed to get any warmer today, and tonight it is supposed to freeze with temps in the 20's. It is supposed to be back in the 70's again just in time for the weekend!!! Florida weather, ya gotta love it. |

In upstate NY we had about a total of an inch of snow and that was all in last two months. We usually have about a foot or more by now. There is a winter storm warning for the next day but that is for ice. |

My daughter and I rode to church in 55 degrees Sunday morning. Got up this morning and it was 13.5, needless to say the bike is still in the garage. |

I have spent twenty years in Wisconsin, and four of those years as a taxi driver. I think I saw the worst roads ever yesterday. Patches of black ice in central Kentucky and then the roads were so icy in West Virginia I thought they hadn't even tried to salt them. The hotel manager said they had been salting and ploughing the roads all day. When I stopped near Charleston, WV I had already spent several hours backed up behind accidents and they had closed down I 77. I 64 was at a standstill and I had to practically cling to my car to unload it or I would have slipped on the ice. Today, between Charleston WV and Fancy Gap NC was manageable, as there were salt trucks still running and it seems that the temperatures must have come up a little bit. Coming south from the Blue Ridge Parkway at Fancy Gap the roads were completely clear. I am a really good driver or I would have been scared shitless. I am sure some of the southerners heading back home were. I am glad I knew when to stop. I know there was a 30 car crash in Ohio. It was unreal. I quit counting after eight accidents. |

http://www.cnn.com/2012/01//03/us/winter-weather/i ndex.html I actually pulled over, put my wet phone together and called 911 about the black ice in central Kentucky... it was that bad. |

I'm betting lots of snow this month. Also snow in April. It's just the jet stream holding back the stoned Canucks. I mean Canadian High. |

Best winter EVER here in Wisconsin (as far as I'm concerned). Nice to have skipped NOV and DEC snow. Supposed to be mid 40's here for the next few days. Only 3 months to spring....Yay! |

We've only had about an 1" total west of Cleveland. I haven't had to shovel yet... The dogs are bored though. |

Fantastic weather in Central FL. Did a bunch of yard work yesterday without breaking a sweat (low humidity, yay!) Once the topcase light install project is complete today, hope to take both Ulys out for a ride on our boring yet non slippery covered roads. I miss certain things about MN but shoveling snow is not one of them. |

Looking at 50 again today and tomorrow, might as well put the sled away and get the uly out. It'll snow for sure then! |

Central Ky. has been in the mid 50's past few days. The dog and I were in the yard one day and I noticed the daffodils are up about four inches already. |

In Rochester NY we haven't had enough snow to cover the grass and have had days where it goes from single digit temps to 40-50s in days. Too much salt on the roads for me to take the Buells out but i got some great mountain biking in yesterday! It can stay like this all winter! |

Still no snow here in Kaiserslautern Germany. I'm kicking myself for putting the bikes up for the winter now. |

Still riding to work 10 miles South of the Wisconsin border. The riding season may end Thursday with snow predicted and the high to stay below freezing. |
