NYC, NY, USA

There's "unseasonably warm" and then there's walking around and looking up and seeing an apple tree blossoming—not just budding, but actual flowers—in early January. Very disconcerting.

Yesterday was fairly cold and today we might get a bit of cold rain, but we're looking at genuinely summery weather over the weekend: temperate and rainy, with a predicted low temperature of 57F on Saturday (unusual to have the high temperature be that high, truly bonkers to have the low temperature be that high).

There's going to be snow in Washington DC today, several hundred miles south of us, where it's usually considerably warmer than it is here. I miss snow. I keep wanting to fast-forward on the 10-day weather forecast to see when it will snow here again. Maybe I should go visit a friend in Minnesota.

This photo is from New Year's Day, when J and I took a walk down to the southern tip of Manhattan just as a very dramatic sunset was happening behind the Statue of Liberty. I'm glad I was able to capture the red glint on the water. Close-up (as best my poor little phone camera can manage it) behind the cut.
