Think back, one year ago to May 9, 2020…

It was cold and snow fell across the entire state.

No worries – we’re not repeating that this year, but it’s a good way to gain perspective for this week.

Milder weather sticks around on Friday and lasts into the weekend, too. It should feel pretty great out there compared to the beginning of the week!
