Default DOGWOOD WINTER!

Wow! Listened to customers today, ALL day during the cold rains and
blustery winds telling me of 4 inches of snow in Jackson, Tennessee. Snow in
Memphis. Snow in west Nashville......finally got to go to lunch at 3 and
warm car.............ahhhhh and turned on the radio and heard them tell the
listeners of winds gusting up above 60 mph, hail possibly of quarter size
proportions, but realized I was listening to a further northeastward station
since WNCW's tower in North Carolina was down. The storms did something to
their main tower last night just before the violent thunderstorms hit the
area.

Lots of feeding lightening around midnight but underplayed due to the heavy
slate gray clouds that hung in low swaths and feathers almost seeming like
they touched the hillsides and ground. The winds would kick up, I'd hunker
closer to the little heaters in the cash register stall outside and thank my
inner instinct this morning for putting on an undershirt, the pullover with
the hood, and that my fuzzy jacket was out in the car waiting for me to get
it and layer up. I just wish I'd left the legwarmers in the car
too..........Tomorrow it will be more springlike, and Thursday even warmer.
Ain't spring wonderful in Tennessee?? GBSEG

madgardener looking at temps right now in the upper
30's...................up on the ridge, back in Fairy HOller where the
fairies are curled up under leaves and huddled together.
