Looks like the first six days of November is going to be in the low 70's. It just doesn't get any better......

Well, officially you're right, but I consider November to about March as winter months. It can snow in any of them, but we usually will have at least one 70 degree day each month from now through March.

20 degrees above normal through the middle of the week, and then well below average into the weekend. I can see some colds and sinus problems coming on...

Myth: Cold weather or change in weather causes colds.

Fact: The ‘‘common cold’’ has nothing to do with climate or temperature. Changes in weather and dampness may affect someone’s arthritis but will not cause a cold. The ‘‘common cold’’ is a viral infection that is transmitted by contact with a sick person. Viruses that cause the common cold tend to be more active in the winter and school year when people are clustered together and more likely to spread germs. Colds occur in warm, southern climates, as well. I see plenty of people with cold infections in the summertime.

May be Fact with regard to the colds, but the changes it temps sure bring about alot of sinus problems. My son & I both suffer from sinus headaches and infections that coincide directly with the weather changes.

Exactly. For whatever specific reason, colds and sinus infections are associated with winter...and for some of us the rest of the seasons,too!

 

Saltydawg rides no matter what everyday to work about 55 miles one way. He needs an IV oil drip for his RSV!

[Bummer]

Say what you will about Al Gore, if Global Warming (aka Global Climate Change) means a longer riding season it's not all bad.
