Default colddddddddd in Phoenix??

Well was gonna ride to work today-I never watch the weather due to the fact its the same sunny and 70 every day pretty much the next 3 months here. Well today I get up its kinda overcast and 50. I decide not to ride and thank god. The temp is down to 44 degrees in Phoenix at 4 in the afternoon??? And rainy??? Wow, this is the coldest temp during the day since I moved here just over 3 years ago....not riding anytime in the next 24 hours for sure... Hell we might have a white Christmas at this rate!!

Was caught in one hell of a blizzard in Flagstaff back a long time ago. The sun will shine again.

Well.....you guys could be up here. Today it WASN"T raining, so that made it the first day I've ridden to work since October, and it was a balmy 33* F.
That made it just the 5th time I've ridden since October 22nd.

You guys have it made.
