New Post

 Yes, another day and another post in the ground. I'll be stringing some wire on them at some point. A warm one today again, turning a bit cool tomorrow with a hard freeze Monday morning. Winter is not done screwing around with us yet. Shortly after that cold snap, a heat wave! Up and down and around and around we go.

Record Heat Hard Freeze

 That's what we've got coming up in our local weather. Things tend to be very changeable at this time of year, but next week, we'll be edging into very hot and dry conditions. I'm afraid to check the status of Lake Meredith and Lake Alan Henry. I'd just rather not know.

Very Windy Very Dusty

 That was yesterday. This morning it got close to freezing. Soon record highs. Much lighter winds today.

No Rain Wind Dust

 Kind of cold, too with that dust in the air and strong winds. It is what I would call a bummer. But there was severe weather and a tornado threat where it did rain, and I sure didn't want that. Our violent climate is kicking into high gear.





Late winter, and spring (sproing!) are seasons you just hope to survive without taking too much damage, here on the high plains of Texas.

Storm Threats!

 All of those storm threats are off to the east of Lubbock. It was nice and humid this morning. I've got a feeling that humidity is all we'll be getting. No rain again. I guess I'll settle for humidity. Now there is talk of a draft, so that young men can fight and die for Israel whether they want to or not. That ought to kick the MAGA twerps in the ass. Draft those "proud boys" and send them off to the desert to die for Israel. Serve 'em right. 





I think I would be amused.
