I made a quick trip to Ballinger over the weekend. I had to run the AC  going home and stopped in OK to clean the bugs off of the windshield. That's bullshit, man.

I ran the heater before I crossed into KS so that was good.

Uh, it's unseasonably warm?

Coming off the heels of one of our coolest January’s in years, something was gonna give.   But it’ll be 30 degrees cooler on Sunday than it will be tomorrow.

85 and humid in Houston right now. 

It better be cool this summer.

Please?

the Farmer’s Almanac says no…

 

The Farmers' Almanac predicts a “Thunder and Zing Spring” for 2025, with wet, stormy weather across much of the United States and South, despite warmer-than-normal conditions.

Texas and Oklahoma are expected to remain mostly dry, though the states will start spring with below-normal temperatures. Then, the Almanac states May will bring warmer-than-usual conditions, and above-average heat is expected through summer, with rainfall staying slightly below to near normal.

This warming trend coincides with the peak of Solar Cycle 25, expected in July 2025. While high solar activity has historically been linked to warmer global temperatures, this connection has weakened in recent decades. Notably, Solar Cycle 25 has already surpassed the peak intensity of Solar Cycle 24, indicating a particularly active cycle.

"A fairly active severe weather season is expected, with the potential for damaging winds, hail and tornadoes—especially in the Deep South, which is forecast to see a wetter-than-normal spring and more frequent thunderstorms," the Almanac states.

Also has Feb as mixed. Must have been one of those days they were drunk when forecasting.

Meanwhile, got 4 of my new veggie beds being built. But damn the allergies have me today.

if my AC was turned on right now, it would be running as I noticed the thermostat at 80. But fuck running the AC in early Feb. I'll ditch for the evening and use someone else's AC. I don't care for this one bit. No sir.

I started looking at places in Estes Park and Aspen to rent for a couple weeks last night. I work from home so knockout work as quickly as possible then go hiking and exploring after.

Again, you never tell us what type of indians. It is important for us to know to determine our actions.

Cold again.  I'm ready for winter to be over.

Sounds like someone hasn't discovered the wonderful world of fleece lined technical pants.

You got a hammer loop in those technical pants?   Or a tactical pocket?

THIS.  Hell, even Costco sells fleece lined jeans if you can find your size.  After this bullshit summer we had, let it stay cold for a few more months

Last summer was much milder than the previous two.  It still sucked, but not as much as 2022 / 2023.
