The next week and a half looks like it'll get warmer...

Good news - of a sort. The weather is supposed to get a little warmer over the next week. Therefore, although the temperature is supposed to be still cold, at least there won't be need for more salt on the roads.

This means that there is less need for car scrapers (which I don't personally need, since I don't drive), more need for umbrellas, less need for jackets, and more need for washing mud off my bike.

Of course, temperature lows are still expected to get below freezing...
