Texas Weather



Only in Texas!
We have had "Roller coaster Weather" most of this winter.
But I would say that this week takes the cake.
Sunday afternoon the temperature went up to 78, Monday was cooler in the 60's but Monday night it snowed.
Not just flurries, big fluffy flakes that quickly covered the ground. When we woke up in the morning we had about 5 inches of snow covering everything.
The kids went out to play in the snow and make a snow family. They played outside for about 2 hours and topped it off with a show fight.
Then the sun did its job and the snow was gone by 1:00 and the temperature was up to 58 by the evening.
Wednesday the weather was nice in the 50's and then Thursday morning it cooled off again and started to rain. It was cold and rainy most of the morning and then it started to sleet and rain. In the early morning it started to snow. When we went to bed it was 34 but felt like 23. Here we are Friday morning March 7, 2008 and the temperature is 37 but feels like 28. The ground is covered in a thin layer of snow and we are all snug in the house with our heater and blankets.
