Crazy weather...

[MaggieRae]

I mean, seriously?? Beautiful 90+* day today with the sun out. I was going to go fishing earlier but saw the Severe Storm warning for the county two above us. Now, lo and behold, it's hailing.

Marble sized hail that melts the second it hits the hot ground. I had to run out and move my truck into the garage. *Sigh* Now it's raining like a banshee. Lovely. Just lovely. And the wind has been terrible lately too. I read a couple of threads and emails about coops getting blown over, and three weeks ago I got blown off my horse. Twice. That's probably my fault, considering I did get back on...

I love Texas, I really do, but this is just nuts. Must be that time of the year.

Yep. Crazy. But just wait 15 minutes and it'll be different! And probably 40 degrees cooler.

In FL now, but from East Texas. Been there, done that. You can keep all that weather!

I'll just take the hurricanes...

60 mph winds.

Definitely not my most intelligent choice.

Next time, I think I'll just stay in the indoor arena...

Hurricanes, tornadoes? Oh my... We get tornadoes all the time. I just don't look them in the eye and they usually hop on north.

It's been getting hot lately. I was so very excited for spring, then two days later, "Oh hi summer. We missed you too."
Someday, I'm moving somewhere that only has spring and fall.

Haha - you want to see bad weather?! Come on up to NW Ohio - we will show you what miserable weather is like! It is currently 36 degrees here and raining - ok pouring. The wind is atrocious - there has been hail, snow, tornados - you name it we have had in all within a few days. I would love to see something above 45 degrees!!!!!!!
Hmmm, getting blown off your horse huh - what are you Texans putting in your water down there?!!!! I've had a horse fall on me when I was barrel racing - bad thing to do on grass! Woke up in the hospital - how humiliating!

We just got off of a Winter Weather Advisery. Snowed off and on most of today. Only got up to 44 degrees.

Edited for my terrible spelling

News of storms in the US actually made headlines down here. I wasn't paying too much attention to the story, so I can't remember if they were on the west or east coast. They said 45 people were killed...

That's not humiliating... It happens. I was practicing barrels and Kota spooked. He ended up sliding in the dirt, fell and rolled over top of me before we slid (my head first) into a wall. Thank god for helmets! I'm lucky I've never had to go to the hospital for a horse accident, but I have gone for tripping. Seriously, who puts stairs at a bar's exit? That's just not smart.

By the way- sunny and 80* now. The ground's not even wet anymore.

Gotta love Texas.
