Crappy weather.
 
I imagine most of you in the U. S. have noticed the weather advisories lately, where some high winds & such are called for. It said the worst of it was supposed to hit Northern Texas & Southern Oklahoma. Well, here in Arizona, we got some rain, wind & cooler weather yesterday, then today we got hail thrown into the mix. 😬
It wouldn't be so bad, but it comes in waves, with "some" sunshine mixed in, so that you can't tell what it'll be like in 5 minutes, lol. 🤔 I say, let it rain, then hail, and get it over with, don't try to trick us into thinking it's done, then blast us again. 🙄


OK, I'm done whining, thank you. Next! 😁😉

I think maybe we're done with it, for today. The sun's been out for about half an hour now. 👍 But I've noticed, the forecast for the next week keeps changing, like they can't quite figure it out. 🤔😉

C'mon, gotta build up that mountain snow pack & ensure that getting that cold/foul-weather gear wasn't a waste! Today in DC region the weather guys said the spring has been rainier than avg but compared to last year it seems blessedly dry.
