It’s going to be cold today and Sunday … like, really cold. And the wind is going to make it feel like it’s 0° outside at times.
But there’s a little hope for the near future. If … BIG IF … if the forecast holds for middle of next week, we could be feeling temps in the mid-40s.
If only that meant the end of winter was near. Don’t bet on it. We still have a long way to go.
