The Fed Beige Book was just released.
The gist: The economy is improving in just about every district:

Reports from the twelve Federal Reserve Districts suggest that overall economic activity continued to increase at a modest to moderate pace in January and early February. 

Activity expanded at a moderate pace in the Cleveland, Chicago, Kansas City, Dallas, and San Francisco Districts. 

St. Louis noted a modest pace of growth and Minneapolis characterized the pace of growth as firm. 

Economic activity rose at a somewhat faster pace in the Philadelphia and Atlanta Districts, while the New York District noted a somewhat slower pace of expansion. 

The Boston and Richmond Districts, in turn, noted that economic activity expanded or improved in most sectors.
