Greens are popping, nice to get properly hydrated but otherwise I agree - way too cold and zero break in the gloom; about as much fun as 65 around Christmas. Proper vitamin D stretch is on the way tho! Yes... about to be rewarded. But I am certain there will be plenty more cool/wet days between now and the 4th of July. Because that is how it works almost every year up here. This talk of endless heat and sun from now until October is pretty silly. 1 Quote **REPORTED CONDITIONS AND ANOMALIES ARE NOT MEANT TO IMPLY ANYTHING ON A REGIONAL LEVEL UNLESS SPECIFICALLY STATED** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
