Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I've come down with a case of Spring Fever. I've enjoyed this warmth that we had on Monday and Tuesday, and I wish it would continue even longer ! I took 4 bike rides on Monday, and another 4 on Tuesday...I wouldn't be surprised if I lost 5 pounds in those 2 days. LOL. I must mention that my bike rides are usually close to an hour long, which comes out to about 5.5 miles at my pace. That's about 44 miles on a bike in 2 days !
Here is a recap of the warm temperatures up and down the East Coast from Monday and Tuesday, March 3rd and 4th. I kept close track of this warmth, as I'm sure you could imagine.

Now here's what I find interesting, but I have never lived in Western New York, so maybe it's typical for them up there...I don't know, LOL. Check out the warm temperatures on Monday, compared to the cold temperatures on Tuesday associated with a Winter Storm.

That's something you don't see everyday in the Philly area. LOL.
By the way, Tuesday, March 4th, tied Wednesday, February 6th, for the warmest day of 2008 so far in Philly, with a high temperature at the airport of 68 degrees both days.
