cycles come and go and that's just how nature is . . .
We had some really cold weather in early December but since then, it's been like spring time around here.
Well, mother nature may finally be signaling that cold weather has returned. As seen in this morning's Omaha World-Herald on-line:
"The evening commute might be one of those white-knuckle affairs.
Gusty winds and snow flurries will buffett drivers and could make visibility a problem.
The winds, coming out of the northwest, will be hardest on east-west drivers, such as those commuting between Omaha and Lincoln, said Cathy Zapotocny, meteorologist for the regional National Weather Service office.
Winds started kicking up Wednesday morning, and will just get stronger as the day wears on, she said. At about 10 a.m., gusts were nearing 30 mph.
The National Weather Service forecasts gusts could reach 45-plus mph Wednesday. Temperatures are projected to fall during the day. The greatest likelihood of flurries is between noon and 3 p.m.
A wind advisory extends until 6 p.m. Zapotocny said meteorologists will evaluate later in the afternoon whether to extend the advisory into early evening.
The cold, windy weather is forecast to last into Friday. Weekend temperatures are forecast to return to the upper 30s and low 40s."
Oh well, it's Nebraska, you knew it wouldn't stay 60 forever . . . one can always dream of course . . .
