Less than an inch of snow. Boy, we could really use some significant moisture around here. Taken 4/21/2008.</center>

Weather
What goofy damned weather. Friday; nice, highs near 40, way to much damned wind. Saturday; snow about 4-5 inches, cold, zero or colder, wind, downright miserable. Today; highs near 40, no wind, nice, at least that's the forecast. Sure is goofy. <br />n<br />nI hate calving heifers in cold temperatures like Saturday. Of course I…

Weather
This weather is unbelievable. Sunday morning it was 10 below zero here. Crisp and cold. Monday morning it was 30 above zero for a 40 degree temperature difference. Then guess what? It rained last night, yes rain. When I got home from my daughter's band concert last night it was 45 degrees above zero and…

Cold Winter?
I see they are starting to talk about a La Niña which means a <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2007/09/12/news/state/25-nina.txt">cooler, wetter winter</a> in our area. I have mixed feelings about this. I understand for snow pack and irrigation purposes the talk of a cooler and wetter winter weather is a good thing.<br />n<br />nI don't rely on snow pack…

Early
It seems a little early to me. I had to put my long underwear on yesterday it was so cold and i was damn glad I did. I would have froze to death if I hadn't. Isn't it a little early yet for such a thing in this area? Seems like it to me. It's…

It seems a little early to me. I was wondering if they were turning because it was time or are they turning because it is dry? I'll probably…

Will It?
There is an 80% chance of rain in the area according to the <a href="http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/byz">National Weather Service</a>. The question in my mind is if it will rain or not. For some reason I doubt it. Hopefully I will be wrong.<br />n<br />nIt really struck me Tuesday how bad I need some rain. A semi came…

Outlooks
Beef herd expansion in the US <a href="http://www.cattlenetwork.com/content.asp?contentid=154808">is still on hold</a> so the outlook for beef prices holding up is good. That's good news to me the producer, we won't talk about you the consumers. The funny thing is that weather is still the driving force here just like it is on fires recently. Everybody…

Abrupt Change
You want to talk about an abrupt change in the weather, that is sure what has happened around here. No rain yet, damn the bad luck, but cooler weather abounds. Last week through Sunday it was low to upper 90's every day and since Monday I don't think it has gotten above 90. It's so…

Yet Again
I'm tired, that's for sure. Last night the weather forecasters said there was going to be a frontal passage that would bring 40 MPH winds and with the hot temperatures and low humidity gave us a red flag warning in the area. Then to top it off they said there was a chance of dry…
