You’ll be getting around today with a light jacket. You may not even zip it up. You’ll be thinking you could get used to this kind of weather for February.
Don’t. Winter – the season we’re currently in, of course – is making a comeback and it’s right around the corner.
After this enjoyable unseasonably mild weather, it’s all coming to an end and possibly in a big way.
There seems to be increasing confidence for a winter storm early next week. Details seem to be limited right now and depending on the forecasts you believe, how much and of what is up in the air as of now.
Best advice you’ll hear today: Bottle up today and hold on to it through the end of February.
