News from Texas

The weather forecast was dismal.

Cold weather was on its way to the Valley.

Tuesday afternoon I found shoppers at Walmart desperately shopping for winter clothing.



Television news stressed the importance of preparing for the cold and showed charities passing out blankets to the homeless. Laws protect pets also, and owners must provide shelter.

As predicted, temperatures plummeted.

Today it topped out at only 64* after an overnight low in the 50s.
And tonight?.
A bone-numbing drop to the mid-40s.


It should be 80* on Friday, if we can but hold on.

Supermarkets are running specials for the holidays.




This is an ad for HEB, but Costco sells 'em too.




And an article from the local paper about a Fort Worth incident....




I got nothin' to add!
