In the northern hemisphere its the first day of Winter. Where I live its 61 degrees so it doesn’t feel like the classic winter temperatures. More than likely there will not be a white Christmas but those are few and far between. I am ready for some colder, more winter-like weather.

What’s Up With The Weather, It’s Truly Confusing
I am confused about the weather we are having here in Tennessee. Forecasts have us with rain much of the week and early fall like temperatures. Cold temperatures have been few and far between. At times we are running the air conditioning during the day and heat at night. Maybe things will be seasonal soon and lets hope we can get some snow sometime. The weather here is messing how things are supposed to be at Christmas time. Perhaps there is something to be said about global warming.
It Finally Got Cold In #Chattanooga
The weather in my city lately has been unseasonably warm. Today it feels like what it should be this time of year. I think global warming is a thing. Here’s to the cold weather, very welcome by many.
It Finally Stopped Raining Where I Live
It finally stopped raining here in the Chattanooga area. We have had 3 straight days of it and we haven’t seen the Sun since Friday I think. Rumor has it that it will make an appearance today. I know rain is a necessary thing but when it keeps coming it can be hard to get around. The rain can give you the blues especially if you make your living outdoors. Needless to say I am ready to dry out a bit. Excuse the language of my graphic but the sentiment is real.
Tired Of The Rain Already
It’s been raining here off and on for the last couple of days and I am ready for it to stop. Yes rain is necessary to replenish and nourish nature but I kind of hate getting wet. It’s Fall in North America but does it have to rainfall so much. Wow, let’s dry things up a little. But hey, our hydrangeas and grass are getting watered for free.
Hurricane Katrina – 10 Years Ago
Ten years ago one of the worst natural disasters took place when Hurricane Katrina came ashore in the gulf coast impacting millions of people and caused many to lose their lives. The damage was in the billions of dollars and to this day people are still recovering. Places like New Orleans were hit hardest and people of all economic levels had their lives changed forever. The cities Lower 9th Ward were the people struggle daily to make a living were impacted the most. People who lived there for decades found themselves homeless. Fortunately thousands of people were able to escape to various places where they were taken in by cities and total strangers. Many of those people relocated to other places like my hometown of Chattanooga.
Today I remember that historic event that changed our country forever. Hurricane Katrina still is on the minds of many who saw what it did and for many who survived it. May we never forget what that devastating storm did and may we be mindful it can happen again.
