Two or three days last week it was in the high 70's and I think one of those may be low 80's. This morning it was 25 and high today only mid 40's. Still think I'm going take a spin on one of the bikes ;)

I looked out the window 1/2 an hour ago and couldn't see the trees in the front yard, horizontal snow what a supreme piss off also with a 30 mph wind. Who pissed the snow god off this time?

Started off promising, since xmas almost nothing. Water rationing starting in some areas, ski resorts are closing early. My wife works at a hospital in Woodland, farming community, she says you'll get dirty looks if you lawn is green.

Cold on June 10 is a good thing. May was the rainiest month ever on record in Oklahoma, Some places got well over thirty inches.   Other than needing some roof repairs, and a few streets flooded and barricaded, and the house being in a projected tornado path once or twice,  I'm fine with cloudy and cool. I'm  hoping for it to come beck next week as predicted, but more likely just scattered showers.
