WEATHER OR NOT?

The sun never did come out, so I took the dogs for a drive. They seemed to think that was pretty much all right. They're snoozing it off now. Apparently, it's exhausting being a hatch lid driver.

Another gorgeous springlike day here in North Texas. Winds are light and variable under sunny skies. High today should be around 80F- just bewtyful

We're supposed to go into a "cooling trend" for the rest of this week. We've had 90-degree plus weather the past couple of days, so I'm ready for cooler weather.

C.I.

I heard on the radio it was 102 in LA yesterday- Is that right?!

Jose Cuervo! Where've you been lately?

Hey MA my weather is the same as Jose's

Being as how you both live in the same neck of the flatlands, Joanne, that ain't hardly surprising.

Jose Cuervo! WOW, nice to hear from you. Yeah, California weather has been quite a bit on the hot side; beating some records going back to the early 20th century. Even San Francisco hit 87 - which was unheard of - it was 82 in 1957. San Jose hit 93, and the past record was 91 set in 1921. WHEW! Yeah, it's been real hot. Hey, JC, don't be a stranger.

Seaglass, you there?

What;s the weather like in the Ka'u desert these days? Still raining like last week?

The sun didn't come out today, but it didn't rain and I got about half of the yard mowed before I ran out of gas.

The place is Birdsville with all the birdfeeders you put up - there is a constant symphony of birdcalls. It sounds like MusicaAmerica in the old days before the maestro R. Lotzimer(SP) died.

Lurtzima, I think. Birds are cool.

It never rains on Kiluea
But those clouds can really slay ya.

Okay, okay, I'm going. Don't push.

Nice here again in North Texas. Sunny and mild but, like they say down here, "don't like the weather? Just wait awhile it'll change". Chance of thunderstorms later today.

Hello to all my long lost friends-



Sadly, I've been out pounding the pavement in the "Real World"- trying to find a job IS a full-time job ! But then I don't want a job. I want a POSITION! When I'm not doing contract work designing circuit boards, I've been substitute teaching at local schools. This week I'm in the computer lab and have a lot of spare time to waste... er, surf the web .

Yeah, Jose, we hear you. The job market for high tech workers is real bad; most of our friends children in software engineering are having a heck of a time trying to find jobs, and they're grabbing anything they can find. It's tough out there! I think the economy is improving, although slowly for job seekers. Hang in there, Jose. Glad you're back in "town." c.i.

Thanx C.I.



Joanne, I take exception to the assertion that ANYTHING in Dallas is the same as Fort Worth... In fact, I think you all in big D are in a differnet climatalogical zone- a warmer one (probably due to all that concrete over there).

After being here over a year I must agree Jose and add that I hate Dallas.

Do you think the concrete cause all the purple days too?

Purple days or purple haze? Blame it on all that smoke coming up from Mexico

JC, nice to see you again!

Lots of luck finding a job! I like what you said about finding a position vs a job ... I would hire you on the spot:)

Speaking of smoke from Mexico, "our weather's being influenced by a Canadian low, not to be confused by a Mexican high" -Al Sleet, the Hippie-dippie weatherman

Thanx Misti26
XXOO ;^}

Hmm, Jose just heard that the DFW Metroplex is almsot at the top of the list of the 10 cities in the US with high levels of ozone. And what about all those cement factories in Collin County. The air polution in DFW cannot all be the fault of Mexico.
