The Snow from the Ice Storm Just Melted and We Saw a 73° Day

When my mom told me it was going to be 73 degrees here in Southern Indiana on Monday, I was absolutely flabbergasted. It’s FEBRUARY, for crying out loud! I’ll admit, I was a little salty when my husband texted to tell me how beautiful it was outside since I was stuck in a windowless office.

When I got home, my daughter was already in shorts and riding her bike with friends in the neighborhood. I was exhausted so I ended the day with a nice nap outside but I still can't believe that it was so warm in the middle of a midwest winter. Since Monday, we've seen temps in the 50s. In fact, I just turned my heat back on this morning. I wish this warm weather could go on forever but the National Weather Service posted that snow is on the way.
