MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) - The warm and sunny weather had a lot of people out on rooftops and patios for the first time this spring.

Phil and his wife, Karen, have a date night at Psycho Suzis in northeast Minneapolis once a month, but on Tuesday, they made it for the lunch hour to catch some sun.

Its a beautiful, lovely day, and I have this gorgeous woman with me, said Phil, of Oak Grove.

With Tuesdays high reaching 12 degrees above average, WCCO-TVs meteorologists declared it a Top 10 Weather Day.

Just up the street from Psycho Suzis is a new restaurant from the same restaurateur. Its called Betty Dangers Country Club.

The restaurant was busy getting ready to show off its anticipated main attraction, The Mechanical Tree. Its a ferris wheel that promises to give customers the chance to dine, drink, and soak up skyline views of the city.

It opens to the public on Wednesday.

But if being on the ground is more your thing, it didnt matter if you were walking, running or biking, Minnesotans took comfort in knowing or hoping the winter weather is over.
