Unseasonably Hot, I Mean Cold, in the Midwest
Not having phoned home for a few days I’ve missed the weather reports that admittedly I could access by typing something into a browser.
Ah yes, but would a browser come back with the response of it’s hot here too, and in the very next sentence, it’s very cold here too, do ya think?
This week, quite probably, yes it could.
I was reading FlirtySomething the other day (forgive me I’m way behind on the sidebar additions) and noticed there’s been some interesting weather changes at home recently - almost of a Kansas City scale. Almost.
I haven’t complained about the weather for a while here - at least not much since I thought it was a good idea to make an igloo - but indulge me for a moment. Or don’t then.
Yesterday in Kansas City it was almost 30 degrees centigrade - with it being 24 degrees in the house in the middle of the night, what you call a heatwave in Ireland when they occur every seventeen years. And today, right now it’s minus 2, with a RealFeel of minus 9. Zero being freezing means that minus 2 is very freezing, and the RealFeel thing means that it really feels like it’s freezing. It really does.
All I know is that after a March where it was unseasonably warm and humid, now in the first week of April my fingers are unseasonably cold, too cold to hold a paintbrush. Or anything resembling a paintbrush. Like a hurling stick for Action Man. And that sort of thing.
Porridge anybody?
