The warnings were up, high winds from 0800 to 2100. Warm on my way to work. Warm and gusty winds as I came home. With more wind, the air turned white with blown dust. Sometime about 1730, a dramatic microburst wind hit, bringing down small branches, tossing porch chairs, lots of noise. More damage out of the city. Trucks blown off highways, trees down, trampolines damaged - the last I consider too stupid to care about, if only because - HIGH WIND WARNINGS. Jeeze. If you own a trampoline, kinda important to know when it's going to be windy. This has been predicted for several days.

Anyway, it's raining now, still a bit blowy, mild lake stink once the winds came out of the North. More rain, some doubtful snow, another wave at the end of the week. The garden will be even more green.
At one point, Moby was on our bed, which is nice. A short while later, both cats are stretched out, parallel, Eleanor two feet behind Moby.
The winds upended everyone a little today, with rain a benison. April.

April showers, May flowers, as they say.
No crazy wind here, but yes, rain, and yes, it will turn green what is currently a dull brownish green.
