Thunderstorms tonight. Lightning flashes and thunder rolls across
the plains. This is MARCH or APRIL weather yet here we are in January. I am in Kearney, NE and this winters weather is beyond abnormal, it is perverse.
We should be having highs of about 15 to 25 degrees. Our weather for the whole MONTH of January has run a full 18 degrees above normal. Highs this week have been in the upper 50's and lower 60's. The thunderstorms are forming again this afternoon. This is late spring weather. I don't know what's going to come of this place but it will never be what it was before again in my lifetime. Our river is gone. The once mighty Platte is a grassy plain here now that has to be mowed in the spring and summer.
I'm in Yorkshire in the north of England. We should have had several snowfalls by now, but we've only had one that was gone in a day, while the southern part of the country has had blizzards when they normally don't have much of anything.
There are actually flowers blooming on some of our trees. In January. This isn't right and it makes me uneasy.
