WEATHER

Jacky, I was wondering how your family was faring with unbelievable flooding. I can’t begin to imagine the feeling of watching that coming. As if sandbagging were not bad enough as a way to try to protect, it is beyond belief that it has to coincide with freezing which makes them pretty much ineffective. The one striking positive is how the people have come together to do everything possible to deal with it.

Jo, better stick a sweater in your luggage coming to Texas–we’ve had some wild swings down here. I removed the protection of hydrants and pipes Sunday and although it hit 78 today, it is predicted to go down into the 30′s tomorrow night which would be a new record. Severe wind and storms to the north of us right now.
