Ugh

Oh man, today is BEAUTIFUL! We're ramping up in temperature to possibly 35 F by the weekend. . . hopefully melting all the sheets of ice currently encasing the sidewalks. So yes, my dream of a weekend where I can actually go outside and enjoy Madison comes true.

Ah, but from the dream I must awaken, as here is the latest "Special Weather Statement" for Monday:

DO NOT PUT THOSE SNOW SHOVELS AWAY JUST YET. ALTHOUGH WE WILL HAVE A QUIET WEEKEND AND TEMPERATURES MAY GET ABOVE FREEZING...MOTHER NATURE IS LOADING UP THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE ACCUMULATING SNOW BY EARLY NEXT WEEK.

D'oh.
