60 here. Just took my longest drive in over a month. Unfortunately, I couldn't avoid the melted snow puddles.

It warmed up here enough to melt the snow off the car. So I put the winter cover on it, like I should have done at Thanksgiving! Had to move it a bit in the driveway, and was really tempted to take it for a 50 mile cruise - but there's likely still salt on the streets so it's sleeping.

I think the high was 9 today.
Only place I went was to pick up a case of Breckenridge Small Batch 471 IPA.

8.2 degrees on its way to 10 below, about a foot of fresh snow. Glad I bought a Jeep 2 weeks ago. It is very beautiful and clear here, with the snow on the trees. The sunset was awesome.
