A Change in the Weather

We were having spring and almost summer like weather in Lubbock, but last night, a wintry front blew in, and we are expecting a few days of cold weather. It was very cold this morning when I went to work, and although the temperature was in the low 70s midday, by the time I left work tonight, it was cold and the blustery wind made it feel even colder.

I grew up in New England. The wisdom about the weather in New England was "if you do not like the weather, wait a minute and it will change."  I moved to West Texas in 1977.  The word about the weather was "if you do not like the weather, wait a minute and it will change."  I never said anything to the native West Texans about that, but really, isn't that the truth almost everywhere in the middle latitudes.

This week is a good example of that.
