We'll pay for this in March

Just because I could, I drove around this afternoon with my sunroof open, which is something I figured I'd never be able to do while living in Connecticut.

My car reported a temperature of 70 (!) for most of the drive, and it ticked up to 71 for a minute before falling into the upper 60s. We have yet to see a flake of snow this winter, and I think there might have been one week with temperatures as low as the 20s -- and that was only overnight. This is happening all over the Northeast, probably thanks to El Nino.

And after putting up with the torrential downpours that El Nino causes in the Northwest, I'm more than happy to reap the benefits now that I'm back in the Northeast.

do you have any idea how hard it is to purchase snow tires when the weather is like this?!

I second the sunroof opening. mine was also open on Saturday.
