Re: ah, Spring in Texas

Raining here [what else is new?]. Not hard, dramatic rain. Soaker type. It started sometime last night and hasn't let up--if anything, it's become more persistent. There's no breeze so I can only conclude the storm is in no hurry to move off.

It's 56 here right now, but everything is still brown and gray, and I fully expect to see another snowstorm before Spring really gets going. Usually happens just after the plowmen have taken the plows off all their trucks.

LOL - no way, it's still winter back there! It'll be back up to the mid 
70's by Monday.  Thank goodness!

Sounds like it is time to move back to the Pocono's.

Out looking for twirlies, we've got a watch going until 8pm. We had a 
big
thunderstorm come up from the South around 1pm, dropped about 1 - 1 1/2" 
of
rain. Warm and muggy, then the wind shifted abruptly to Northwest (here comes a norther) and the temps have dropped 20 degrees in the last hour. 
So
there is some serious turbulence in the atmosphere at the moment - winds 
are
around 30 mph sustained w/ gusts. We actually have a frost warning for tomorrow and Sunday morning now. And maybe flurries tonight? Crazy 
weather man.  The birds are freaking out too.
