Vastly Improved Weather

 Springish, but with no howling winds for a week or so, but after that, nobody knows. I enjoy warmth and sunshine, but rain is desperately needed. Eventually we'll get some. 

Another Dust Storm

 Yesterday started well but conditions deteriorated and by the afternoon, the winds were very strong and there was a LOT of dust in the air. And that crap went on all night. Par for the course. More wind today but the worst of this sorry episode is past. It should not be quite as dusty today. It is VERY dry around here. 

It's really hard to find any place on the planet that is not, in some way, a shithole. And what does that tell you?

Warm More Wind

 Ah yes, we have more wind on the way but not so severe as what we had earlier. That was nasty. It will be quite warm today, and that will be good. Genetic testing reveals that my ancestry is overwhelmingly middle European, from the Rhineland, and a region of France that managed to remain pagan and Celtic for a long time, long after Christianity began to spread. I'm quite proud of that. And they were all products of the last major human mutation, that took place around 10,000 years ago. That's nice to know. 

Pleasant Day!

 Warming very nicely and no severe weather. Light winds.  Plenty of sunshine!

The "rule of law" has gone down the toilet. That didn't take long, did it? 

Lots Of Problems!

 Yesterday's winds did a lot of damage in the area. Blew over semis! Caused accidents, power outages and fires when power lines went down. That sort of thing is not at all unusual in this part of Texas at this time of year. I got through it OK. No damage, just inconvenience. Actually, I've experienced conditions far worse than that. 

I need to do a little cleanup because of windblown debris.
