Yesterday the high temperature was near 70*. The leading edge of the front arrived in late afternoon with a dramatic increase in winds. I pulled my flags in at about 3:30. The system arrived in earnest by supper time. Sustained winds of 25 mph with gusts higher. Started spitting rain first and by bedtime our GSD didn’t even want to go outside to pee. It blew all night long and hasn’t let up. As I write this at 0725 Mountain, it’s 15*, snowfall has been light, <1”, but we’re supposed to have 3-6” by this time tomorrow. It’s not like it hasn’t happened before.

The weather here has been as predictable as I remember. We are suffering a cold spell today and tomorrow though. It’ll be rough. I hope I can make it through.

In the Ft. Collins, CO area, we went from a high yesterday of around 83 to a forecast low tonight of 12 degrees. That's brutal! I'm betting the trees and other vegetation will suffer.

Lows for the Houston area today...72. Cold front headed this way. Friday and Saturday? 50 and 55, respectively. That's why the fire pit is coming out Saturday night. Yeah baby!!!
