Yet, the start of next week looks promising for those aching for consistent sunshine. Washington's Birthday and Tuesday are slated to be sunny, with highs inching towards 39 degrees. As daylight extends and shadows shrink, the public is encouraged to take advantage of the "apricity," or the warmth of the winter sun early next week, as noted by NBC Boston.
