Please allow me to interject my feelings about Mother Nature

Two weather systems are colliding right above me. One pushing up from the Gulf Coast and the other pushing east from the plains. Damndest pattern I've ever seen. Either they cancel each other out or synergize. As journalists we know that term.

 

That means one of the systems will be laid off and the other will take a cut in pay power.

 

The Gulf Coast is getting pounded today. New Orleans has had seven inches of rain so far and is under a flash flood emergency.

Omaha and surrounding areas in Iowa and Nebraska got wrecked by a series of tornadoes Friday. At least seven touched down, including some very large ones. Amazingly, no fatalities or serious injuries have been reported.

Tornadoes tear through Nebraska and Iowa, demolishing homes. Here are the residents' stories

 

The winds off that storm must have carried east. It's a beautiful morning. Not a cloud in the sky. No threat of rain.
But the straight line wind is out of bounds this morning. I don't know what that's about.

Denver weather has been all over the map this spring.

 

Is there an unlike button?
I’m enjoying the first flip flop day of the year, sitting on the back deck smoking a rack of ribs after having just gotten home from the NAIA beach volleyball national championship.

 

Big boomers out west will roll in here right about the time I get off work. So I get to drive home in it.

 

Tornadic storms lining up in Oklahoma and Arkansas today and tomorrow. Not good.
