Weather for Weekenders - 02/13/09

The weather this week was much warmer than is has been in a while. Most of the time the highs were in the 30's and 40's with one day reaching the 50 degree mark. Yesterday we got rain instead of snow (or the dreaded wintry mix) for the first time in a long time. It melted the big piles of snow down considerably although there is still quite a bit left. The rain also helped to melt some of the ice that has plagued us for a couple of weeks now. Unfortunately though, that is not completely gone either. But the days are getting longer and I choose to believe that spring is just around the corner!
