It's a bit cool, a bit rainy, and a bit windy. It actually feels better than it has for a number of days on the back porch. Sitting here with my coffee watching the trees dance is kind of pleasant for us Sunday morning. But there's rain in the forecast…
It's another dark and overcast morning. We're starting out fairly warm at 71°. There's a chance of rain all weekend long... We'll just have to wait and see. Can't help but green up the browns of winter... As I was taking the photos above, I saw the first whistling ducks…
It's a beautiful clear morning. Temperature in the mid 50s. Cloudless skies. Sunshine hitting the tree limbs, making them stand out beautifully. A cool list of the morning will only be with us for the day. Tomorrow we're back up in the sixties, upper sixties. With highs pushing 80 and…
Sunset No coffee muse this morning. So I thought I'd flip it around and just show some photos taken at sunset. I hope you had a wonderful day. Y'all stay safe, stay healthy, and pray for our nation and our world.
Wordless Wednesday
It's a pleasant, if rainy, start to a spring day. Temperatures in the low 60s. The whole time we waited for the bus this morning it rained. Sometimes lightly, sometimes heavier. Luckily, as both kids walk to the bus, it was mostly lite. As always, if it's Tuesday, it must…
The morning dawned overcast once again. It also had me up before the sun... The grandkids are back in school. And after the spring forward it's dark out when the buses come by again. My morning has been busy I have to get out the door here in just a…
Wow, talk about a day with a split personality... There are clouds in the eastern half of the sky, but perfectly blue sky to the west. Yesterday's satellite image showed the same dichotomy but the clouds were east of Galveston Bay. Temperatures are a bit higher today, but only a…
For the third day in a row, it's a clear skies sunny morning. The temperature is 52°. There's a slight breeze. It's late... I guess I'm milking every day I can out sleeping in before the grandkids go back to school and the alarm starts waking me before the sun...…
Another bright, but cool, spring like morning. Two in a row. It's 48°, without cloud in the sky. A nice way to end a week. I got my notice yesterday to schedule my covid-19 vaccination. So, for right now, I'm scheduled for Monday morning. And I only have to drive…
Yesterday's front left the air crystal clear. Left the sky cloudless and blue. Left the temperature much more seasonable. And left bird watchers anticipating a fall out event. This morning's temperature is a pleasant 51°. According to windy.com, the wind is blowing out of the Northwest at 16 mph. I…
Wordless Wednesday, St Patty's Day
It's another hazy, foggy morning. The temperature is 68°. It looks like it ought to be cool, but it's not. But, foggy mornings are definitely quiet. I find myself this morning actually watching Morning Joe. Amazingly, we're still dealing with the aftermath of January the 6th... Insurrection day. Just amazing.…
It's a foggy, foggy morning out. The big cool down that was expected last week failed to materialize. The morning low is just 64 degrees. The prognosticators are now aiming at Thursday for our next chance at a more moderate morning temperature. Daylight savings time sure affected the look and…
It's late, always is when we spring forward. It's warm, 71°. It's overcast again. Forecast is for rain, at least showers. Forecasted amounts are low. So mostly, they'll pass us by. And since it's late, my daylight savings time. I need to get up and start breakfast. So this will…
Once again, it's overcast and 68°. This has been one of the most overcast winters I can recall. I was reading a post at Space City Weather and they had a piece about how we are so far behind in rain this year. I must admit, for all of the…
Heavily overcast, unseasonably warm at 68°. There's rain in the forecast, just not today. There's a bit of a cool down coming, again, just not today. Even the birds don't seem to be announcing spring as they have in the last week. It's rather quiet outside. Almost as if mother…
While we still look like winter, the morning temperature of 68° lays false to that claim from my eyes. It's definitely shorts and tank top weather. And the AC is definitely on here in the house. It's not fighting the outside temperature so much as moderating the inside heat rise…
Wordless Wednesday
I've already opened the windows this morning. The outside temperature is 59°. Overnight the house held a 69° temperature. With the forecast high being in the seventies today, and lows overnight being forecast for the mid to upper 60s, I assume it will be time to kick over to AC…
The sky is blue, the sun is up, and it's 42°. Welcome to the start of the week. The grandkids have caught their buses. I'm back in my chair. I'm ready to get on with my day. I spent my weekend meandering through the archives of the Redtree Times, GC…
Sunday morning, sunny and 52°. Not a cloud in the sky. Just a hint of a breeze. It's funny the only hint of green on the ground is next door where the grass burned. Everywhere else it's as brown as I've ever seen it. We just aren't used to day…
It's a bit cloudy out this morning. It's a cool 53°. And there's a bit of breeze blowing. I was laying in bed awake prior to the alarm going off. So after turning the alarm off, I decided I might as well get out of bed. So I was able…
It's overcast outside, 58°. Sometime today, the prognosticators are predicting a 50% chance of precipitation. From the looks of the clouds, they will probably be right. Once again the birds are celebrating the feeling of spring in the air. Filling the air with their song. I noticed yesterday that the…
Sunrise is earlier and earlier each day... At least for another week or so, then it's spring forward. Temperature this morning is 41°. Cold enough to see your breath, but not cold enough for a jacket... At least not if you're just walking to the car. The birds seem to…
Wordless Wednesday
The ground is soggy, water standing everywhere from the overnight rain. We've slipped back into our normal winter weather. It's 49° outside. Not only does it have the feel of winter, it has the look too. Even the traffic on the road, as we waited for the buses, was moving…
It's foggy out this morning. And with the temperature at 70° with the forecast for it to fall until tomorrow morning, it should be an interesting and wet day. The kids have departed on their buses. I've started my third cup of coffee. The house is quiet. But, outside on…
It's misty out this morning... 69°and damp. We haven't seen but glimpses of the sun in days and days. Ever since that week of freezes, the Earth is visibly browner. The grass, the shrubs, even some trees, have all taken on that seared look. Yesterday I saw pictures on that…
