Weather

icy blooms

 

This National Geographic photo from Northwest China shows flowers in a garden after a late-season ice storm hit last month. 

Here at the Boggy Thicket, the weather has been almost as strange.  Our azaleas bloomed almost a month earlier than usual, then April saw a new cold front every Thursday for four weeks in a row.

The last one got May off to a chilly start with a record-tying low yesterday, and this morning’s low - 43° – was the coldest ever for the month of May in Southeast Texas. 

Hopefully, our chilly days are over – today’s high is supposed to reach the upper 70s.
