Disappearing storm

I just love it when storms fizzle out before they arrive! This wasn't supposed to be a big one - just 1 to 3 inches of snow were forecast for the Boston area - but it would have been big enough to lengthen my normal morning commute. Instead, there appear to be a large number of people who believed the forecast and decided to work at home. The roads were empty this morning. So empty that I took I93 instead of surface streets, so empty that it took me just over 20 minutes to drive to work! Awesome.

Now I just have to hope that the long-term forecast which shows cold but clear weather for next weekend is right. Remember, I'm still 20 miles away from my goal of riding 4000 miles this year...
