Our ever-toasty winter marches on. Today’s highs were near 60, more common of about a month from now. With some flowers blooming and other greenery sprouting, you could be forgiven for thinking today is St. Patrick’s Day and not Valentine’s Day. On the bright side, weather isn’t in your way on this special day.
