Hi Cindy, yeah...that day it got to 59 and even 60 briefly.
That's why I said "cold tomorrow.....and making soup"
The "tomorrow" was 20 degrees colder.

That day (Monday) I was out most of the day but I won't put
on shorts until temps are 70F or more. brrrr. Below that,
shorts are only for running.

> We've got some warm weather (34 F) coming,


Now there's a big difference. 34F is super cold here especially
with a wind and the wind chill factor. Without wind it
does feel pretty warm out.

Definition of cold is also about what you are used to.
I lived in Rhode Island for a winter. It gets very cold there
but it stays cold so you get used to it. Here, temps go
up and down all winter so no getting used to anything.
