It will be more of the same temperatures. I checked the long range forecast and found out it will be cold for the next seven days–it will hit the low forties at most. Then the low fifties. Not very warm at all. We had one or two previews of spring whereby it hit the low seventies. It still feels like winter. It is easy to complain. Praise the Lord we can still pay our heat bills. I know it will get warmer. I just want it now if not sooner! I am clearly not in charge.

The Two Day Heatwave

Author: siggy

Yesterday I never found out the final temperature in the afternoon. I was told it broke over an hundred year record, maybe, since they were keeping records. Today is more of the same. It might also break the record for that date. Today I stripped off my sweater. I was too hot and I am about to take off my longjohns. The next day it is back to more normal temperatures–thirties and twenties with maybe highs of around forty. Anyway, it is a preview of spring. Next Sunday is four weeks to spring and I can’t wait. It’s coming.

It was fifty outside and the thin pine trees were really swaying in the wind.  There was a dull roar in the background.  It was a perfect day to fly a kite except I didn’t have one.  This whole week promised to be above average temperatures.  Winter was winding down and this week was a preview of spring.  I just checked:  daffodils are poking their heads out of the soil.  Yesterday we saw pussy willow buds.  I am, next, searching for the primrose that come up even before the daffodils.  Winter is winding down.  Spring is now in the air.
