Everyone seems to want to rush through winter. I guess if you live where it snows, that's totally understandable. Here in Southeast Texas, we rarely, and I mean RARELY get snow. We do get ice, though. In fact, they threatened a big ice storm a couple of weeks ago, but thankfully, it didn't happen. We had some freezing temperatures but not much precipitation. Then this past week, we were in the 80's for 3 days in a row.
We did have a historic ice storm exactly 5 years ago that was one of Texas' worst natural disasters. Millions without power, some for more than a week, snow in many places, ice over the entire state, over 200 deaths. I don't care to relive that. We have had a few freezes this year, but nothing like that.
If we use Groundhog Phil as an indicator, we still have another four weeks of winter to go, which actually lines up closely with the actual first day of Spring, March 20th. How has winter been treating your area?

ReplyDeleteWe don't have the huge of weather swings, but we can be warm one day and cold the next. Right now it's cold. Well cold to us. Winter hangs on as long as it can. You know we'll be griping about how hot it is pretty soon.
ReplyDeleteLove all the funnies. Well done.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. ♥
I am never ready for A/C season, as far as I am concerned if there's no snow or ice, it can stay cool/cold as long as it wants. Thanks for the smiles and Happy Tuesday!
