Winter may be coming to neighborhood near you
Winter may be coming to our neck of the woods soon, and perhaps to a neighborhood near you? Or do you live in warmer climates where there is no winter, or not much of one anyway?
I’ve always lived where the seasons are distinct, and I’ve always enjoyed that. I confess, the winters here in the Missouri Ozarks have one nasty characteristic I hate — ice storms. I’ve lived in much colder regions, i.e., we spent six winters in South Dakota. But in colder places, winter meant low temperatures, often lots of snow — but not the ice storms. We’ve gone through two so-called “100 year ice storms” or whatever. Both have come in the last 20-22 years. So much for the “100 year” labels.
So far this year, we’ve had a really mild November. That may be changing in the next couple of days. There are possible heavy rain forecasts out for the next couple of days. The temperatures are supposed to drop below “normal,” whatever normal means. If you live around here, too, I urge you to break out your swimming pool covers, storm windows, pet shelters, and all the rest. Better to get prepared BEFORE that nasty ice hits. And welcome to another winter!
