Paul, you're right, prepare yourself

You've had 4 months of frigid, ice climbing weather, it's time for warmth damn it!!

The little groundhog even came out to say we have an early spring, so you should have been prepared for warmer weather early.

FTR, it will get cold again, this is just a false spring, but it very well may have ended your climbing season. Sorry bout that

You could have climbed the mountain of snow in my front yard. Fortunately, it has receded quite a bit. There wouldn't have been much room for more snow (when it inevitably comes.)

Car has CEL again. All cylinders missfiring, only at startup for a few after sitting for 6+ hours.

Changed the plugs today. Old ones were very burntish black at the base of the plug by the nut part.

Clearing the codes and see what happens.

I disagree .... I want it to stay cold until mid march.

THEN it can get above freezing all you want.
