In the interests of something completely different, I thought I would talk about the weather we have had here this past week. Because it has been remarkable to my way of thinking.
About a week and a half ago we were enjoying what I suppose we have come to see as fall weather: mid-60's during the day, high 40's at night. On Sunday night a week ago the "Polar Vortex" roared through - where we are, there is nothing between us and Canada except flat. Temperatures plunged to the high 20's at night and low 40's during the day. We held that weather pattern until Wednesday, when the temperature started to climb but not a great deal - we only had a 15 degree variation one day between morning and daily high.
By Friday the weather had turned nicer, but with clouds. We had sprinkles all day. By Saturday it was a full on rainstorm which extended through the night - by Sunday morning we had received 3.84 inches of rain. And then yesterday the sun burst out in glorious view with a high of 75.
A 50 degree swing in weather conditions within a week. We have never had such interesting weather since we moved here.
