It’s looking very spring-ish.  Time to vote, take in a play or movie and perform some civic duties, or cheer for your favorite team.

WEATHER: We’ll be on a roller coaster of a ride this week, with highs climbing, then plunging. The high temperature is 72 degrees on Monday, rising to 86 by Thursday, then diving all the way to 63 by Sunday. No prospect of rain, though.

ELECTION: The primary election – including the state presidential primary ­ is set for Tuesday, March 3, but you don’t have to wait that long. Vote by mail began on Feb. 3 and you can now cast your ballot at any in-person Vote Center all around the county.  To find your best local polling place before March 3, go to www.ocvote.com/votecenter.
