Memphis Weather & The Drop of A Hat

One thing about Memphis that is really true, and that is; if you don't like Memphis weather, just wait a few minutes. We surely have four seasons, but in between, we have such a variety you would not believe. I am sitting here right now, looking out of my window of my
Memphis Home, at at least 12 inches of snow drifts and at least 8 to 10 inches everywhere. Well, it's winter you say....so what's so odd about that. Well, let's remember Friday morning...two days ago...at this same time....it was 71 degrees outside. Trees have started blooming and lillies are breaking ground in the flower beds.
That is real change....no political agenda intended here.
The best part about this snow, is that it is wet snow ...and by the afternoon hours, there will be snowmen everywhere. There are already photos on Facebook from midnight last night of snowmen already standing through the wee hours of the morning.
The worst part about this snow, at least for students....is that it will be all gone by tomorrow am and they did not get a snow day from school....oh well.
Hey...going out to play now. Don't forget to stop and smell the roses if you can find them.
