It really has been cool out. According to the National Weather Service, the temerature average on Monday was 14 degrees below normal, and the high was 59. The last time it failed to reach 60 in Knoxville was March 27.
Kind of funny how quickly I become “soft” in the spring. Back in Februrary, I would have thought a 59 degree day was great weather to go bike riding; on Monday I didn’t bother because it felt too “cold” out.
