Well yesterday was cold, but once again absolutely cloudless.
Today is still cold (32 degrees), but a lot closer to normal. Once again, sunny and gorgeous.
I tell you what, this month has been overly sunny and its gonna make summer's sunshine levels not-so-special. lol

Steve, Are you saying that the level of sunshine will be below normal this summer because we're getting so much this winter? I'm a bit confused.

No, not at all. Sorry, I worded it badly.
What I meant to say is that I look forward to the sunny summer months because winter is normally usually more cloudy than sunny. When summer comes and the sunny days trump the cloudy days, it makes the season more special. But since we're having such a sunny winter, the transition to the sunnier months wont be as noticeable or enjoyable (minus the temperature aspect).

The sun continued today... overcast most of the morning, then cleared later on to cloudless skies and milder temps. I believe it was 37 today....
