We had a beautiful sunny day down here in Texas... tied the record high for the day with 87 degrees. All the storms were well to the northeast, from St. Louis across Illinois-Indiana-Ohio-Michigan. I really didn't follow much of the severe weather yesterday since it was mostly out of of the territories I've grown up or lived in. It's those Kansas/Oklahoma events like we saw last spring that usually get my attention, plus whatever happens locally of course.
This weekend remains a question, however... with thunderstorms possible Friday that might give way to bonafide winter precipitation over the weekend. The computer models are flip-flopping with every run.
We had a good freeze last week (down to 26 degrees), so my yard won't need mowing again until perhaps March and the bugs and weeds should be done as well. I wouldn't mind a little snow - unlike most natives and the transplants from up north who can't drive on it, I have no problems - especially after I add a couple of bags of sand to the back of my truck.
