Severe Storm Warnings

First we had 2 days of almost unbearable heat. Then last night it cooled way down. Today the breeze was down right cold. We wore jackets to go out to eat and they felt good. Now I see on the television that the county west of us is under a severe storm warning. That means it will be here soon too. We can always use some rain but we don't need any storms. I hope it passes us by.

Snowstorms

We have a snow storm pending in our area. It is in Nebraska now and they are having a real blizzard. Schools are all closed again, just when you began to feel Spring was near. But February can be brutal in the Midwest. Omaha, Nebraska is really getting the heavy snow and much of their state. It is headed for Des Moines and southern Iowa now and will creeping north until it gets to us. We are only supposed to get an inch but I heard 5 inches south of us so you never know. It is still over a month until it is officially Spring so there is no use getting too excited yet. We could have lots of cold weather and snow between now and then. Just so we don't get any freezing rain. That is the worst when it takes down trees and power lines.
