A change of pace: How's the weather in your neck of the woods?
Edited on Sat Mar-24-07 09:15 PM by YellowRubberDuckie
It's been weird here lately. Humid, warm, but going between cloudy and sunny. Apparently all the storms and any rain are falling apart before the hit Oklahoma City. It's depressing. We need some rain. I guess we need to go wash our cars to get it to rain here. :evilgrin:
So, what's up where you are? Post pictures if you have them!

2. Icky.
Uniformly gray almost all day long. Damp. Hasn't been able to decide what it wants to do...we've had drizzle and rain and fog and groppel and snow...it's been like slush falling out of the sky.

Nasty, nasty.

6. beautiful. like summer time
The power was off until 9:00 tonight and I kind of got a taste of what it must have been like to live 'way back when' when there was just moonlight to go by. It was about 75 degrees and the frogs were making their funny noises and the birds were still calling and it was so quite and dark and beautiful. Soon it will be hotter than hell which is why I'm trying to enjoy it. :hi:

14. Keep a spray bottle fan handy for those crappy outages this summer.
Those things are amazing.
I love it when the birds are calling and the frogs are croaking. That's why we love camping so much. Except for those freaking happy asshole birds in the morning who wake you up with the sun with their annoying weirdness.

I'm very excited about this. It's time for our part of the world to wake up, and I saw daffodils today! It was a great sight!!

10. Lovely.
Mid-70s and overcast. Only a thunderstorm would make it ideal. :)

16. I love thunderstorms.
It stormed early Friday morning, and it made for some excellent sleep. We haven't had a good storm in a while. They have been falling apart over Oklahoma City lately. Really sucks.

...
gonna storm.
which we need....I mean a thundershower...we need rain.

could be some serious t=storms and maybe tornados too.

go to www.weatherunderground.com. ...from time to time, click on 'severe' and watch the warnings move southwest to northeast....in Kansas, Nebraska right now....readhing us sometime tomorrow.

might be fun...we haven't had a thunderstorm since October....could really signal the end of a longass winter...

28. It's around 60F
Considering we've had -40 degree weather this winter, this feels like tropical weather. :)


I think the joggers outnumbered the cars on the road today.

27. The cherry blossoms are turning pink
and the dogwoods and azaleas are starting to bud. I predict the next couple of weeks will be "high" color in our neighborhood!
