![]() Here at 1AM, it has changed from rain to snow. Hell is freezing over I think.
Last snow, 1976. Nothing I can do now, but watch... Come on cold, bring it on! Is this all you got? Worst case, I can just replant next year and I should be good for another 40 years

![]() I knew it was coming since the Sun is at the quiet part of the 11 year cycle. And once I saw snow hit Houston, I knew this year is going to be a pain, and it has been. Or maybe the weather is pissed that Al Gore is trying to pass global warming taxes in Copenhagen and it's telling us the whole thing is a fraud.
Well, I will have some BEAUTIFUL pics in the morning of snow all over tender palms and bananas ![]()

![]() Our July was the coldest on record and the entire summer was among the coolest. We last saw 90 degrees in June - we normally have 8-10 days of them in July and August. A couple of years ago, we had nine days of triple-digit heat, including three in September.
It's 60 in my greenhouse, which is fine since the skies are completely overcast. Mike |

![]() Strong storm his Southern California today. 40mph gust snapped off my 18ft AeAe at the base. Luck had it that it missed falling on the pups. Hope they survive the winter. We have had 1.30" of rain so far today.
