Thunder & Lightning - Heavy Rain started this morning in Flower Mound. Last night was the same. I began to think about winter and wondered what the Farmer's Almanac predicted for 2017.
I did not like was a saw
What I saw, I did not like
Like it or not, Winter is coming
Coming soon is cold & wet

Yesterday I had my irrigation system winterized and many sprinkler heads were replaced. A few days ago, I purchased two rear tires - will be getting front tires soon after I have some routine maintenance done. I'm not happy with the Farmer's Almanac predictions for Winter 2017. I never saw a winter prediction for North Dallas: "Chilled-to-the-Bone" and wet. I thought I left all that behind in Chicago... Better book that furnace check ASAP. Gloves, scarves, winter boots, oh my! I'm not ready for winter attire! I'm going to need an ice scraper - haven't seen or used one of those in years! I don't even think they sell them in Texas.
Ready or Not - looks like no one on the map is going to be spared. It looks like a cold winter. Brrr... for some worse than others. If you're a bird lover, make sure you have a supply of bird seed and feeders on hand. Bird Suet will help out those little frequent flyers who don't fly south for the winter. By looking at the Farmer's Almanac Map, how much further south can people go???
