The weather prediction for this week is cold and clear to partly cloudy. If you are coming from Canada, you'll probably think that's warm, but for us here, this is very cold. At least, it appears at the moment, we will avoid snow unlike last year:

Our climate here tends to be on the mild side due to Lake Ontario, and we're just south of the snow belt. This weekend though should be pretty bitter here, so I'm happy to escape.

I'll try to only say this once this week.
Fahrenheit is weird.
I think I understand Kelvin better.
Your highs are my lows in Davis, CA, so it'll be a transition of gradients of sorts.
