In the pacific NW that's most of the winter. Today it was 38 to 40 and rain all day. It's a shock to see the sun as most days are just gray and cloudy/rainy. If you have to have cold temps to see the sun once in a while it might be worth it.Thumbsup

As for projects, I finished up the y-axis DRO scale installation on my mill today. It's always amazing to me how long things seem to take to get done. I am real happy with how it turned out so far and I am planning on working on the monitor support arm tomorrow. The arm that came with the kit is too short for my setup so I will be making a longer arm and a new bracket. Most of the parts in the kit haven't been what I really wanted so I have been making new ones as I go along. It's actually very relaxing after a hectic week at work.
