rain, rain, don't go away...

oh, we need you this dry and dusty day... (selected lyric from caedmon's call song, "april showers")

we got a brief reprieve from the daily dryness and sunshine yesterday (not that i am complaining about sunshine), which was beyond wonderful for the parched south texas earth (and will hopefully reduce the ongoing risk of fire we've been facing for over a month now), but today the sky is blue again and the north wind has blown in, dropping the temperature to a balmy 45 degrees.

it's like they say--if you don't like the weather in texas, wait 5 minutes.

Today the temperature started at 55 degrees and has been falling ever since. It will be in the mid thirties by midnight.

Weather...it is wacky.
