This isn’t the greatest photo, but it’s the best I have. Two years ago, A happened to look out the window of his office at the exact moment half a hackberry tree split and fell. Yesterday, we had a giant blow of a storm. A was standing in the kitchen looking out the window just in time to see the other half of the hackberry go over. Kind of amazing! Also amazing was that no buildings, garden, fence or other tree was damaged.
On February 21, nine inches of snow fell. This is what that storm looked like. Waiting on another one this afternoon. I recently noticed that the Weather Channel is naming these winter storms. Today’s is called Rocky. Nine to 12 more inches predicted.
I've begun posting again. I need something to help me through February! Looks like it's going to be a long one. Can you see Old Man Winter's face between the boots?
The magnificence of this sky reflects the oppressive heat it holds. I can't remember when I've experienced such dense heat. It was perfectly quiet and still before the cool front moved in from the northwest. It is always a thrill for me when I catch the clash of the cold and hot fronts as they race across the plains. This one produced so much lightning that the high school football game was called off.
Hurricane Hermine has been downgraded to a tropical depression and the remnants are headed our way according to Gary Lezak the most excited weatherman around. A storm the size of Texas? Gary has predicted that we will get rain on Thursday -- no doubt about it.
