Another Fine Day

 Yes, and more work accomplished outside. Things are really shaping up!

It Rained And Rained!

 Yesterday was cold and wet, with rain falling constantly, sometimes light and sometimes heavy. Today it is cool and clear. A warming trend again. And that rain will do a lot of good. It was really needed. Cool, still, but I got out early and worked outside, making some improvements to the general layout. Gained space on the patio after relocating a large planter. I need to buy more potting soil this weekend and look for Lantana. I'd like to start planting. I need more pavers as well. 

Partial Eclipse Today

 That partial eclipse is very likely to be obscured by clouds, with rain chances increasing, so that tonight and tomorrow will be very wet. Although local flooding is possible, there is nothing severe in the forecast. Well, we do need the rain. 

I am not aware of anything new or interesting in Lubbock, or at least, nothing that is of any concern to me. Bird flu still seems to be spreading but not very rapidly and there are no signs of human to human transmission. Probably that is just a matter of time and maybe not very much time. I kept all of my masks and have lots of toilet paper, and MRE's, having learned a few lessons from the last pandemic. Be prepared! Be VERY prepared!

Yes, Windy

 But the worst of it was this morning just as the front passed through. It is not so bad now. It should be a nice day tomorrow.

Temperatures are comfortable and we might have rain next week!

Stunning Weather

 Sunny and pleasantly warm but maybe today we will get the high winds that have been forecast for almost an entire week without materializing. Hold onto your hats. The wind blows forward and the wind blows back. I have turned my backyard into something very much like a meadow. Natural is as natural does. 

A norther is due-- sometime or other. It might be cool tomorrow, like maybe 70 F for the high, and stronger wind. Maybe. Unreliable forecasts have become quite common around here. Dust? Maybe. It IS that time of year...
