pffffft! NORTH Texas???? LOL!! You should hear the wind down here! I think the whole state is getting it!

I don't know when this cold weather blew in, but I went out about an hour ago and it was chilly outside! And then wind is incredibly strong! My neighbor's gate lock is broken and I have a feeling I'm either gonna have to go over there and prop something against it or I'm going to hear it all night! :o

It's howling here, too, Duck! Rain is about one
county west of me in front of a huge green
blob on the radar! Temps are supposed to take
a tumble, but, it's still 62°F, at the moment, ahead
of the front.
