WOW! Wild ride there!
We had calm winds and clear skies as I watched the lunar eclipse climax at 1:30AM local time through the branches of my tree while sitting on the side door steps.
Youngest DD (my sky watching buddy) got to lay in her bed and watch through her window.
DH had his noise machine on "crickets", I got up after 1AM and thought I also heard crickets outside, but realized that it was the Spring frogs, so our winter is officially OVER here!
They Said look SE, but I found the moon due South.
Today the winds are picking up and I am about to burn the tow wagon's worth of sticks that I gathered yesterday.
My window to burn ends about 11AM. The firepit is pretty safe, there are wind breaks south of the firepit, and the grass is coming in.
High today of 83, updated afternoon/evening forecast of 25-35mph winds and t storms at 10PM through overnight, then Saturday's high will be 69 with rain in the middle of the day, THEN, the bottom drops out, Sunday's high will be 47 with snow showers dashing through mid day.

Storms went through last night... no thunder, but really gusty winds. Still gusting hard today. This has been the windiest winter I can remember; it seems like strong winds every 3-4 days. It has blown my big rolling trash cans across the yard into my neighbor's cedars several times already.
Amazingly, the wind has only knocked a couple panels out of my greenhouse (so far
). The ones it knocked out were blown all the way into my (swampy) tree line, and are probably beaten up too badly to reuse.

Tornadoes hit not too far NW of us and SW in Neoga. DD's called us Friday night re tornado warning, they went to the basement with the 2 cats and they all felt the pressure just plummet.
It's amazing that they didn't have a tornado in their town, bc that is a sign.
BTW, I am up taking extra pain medicine (over the counter) and waiting for it to kick in.
This evening we have had a nice soaking rain to make more garlic and radishes and onions and peas and spinach and marigolds grow!

Snow this morning......
Cold, need more winter gear to feed ponies today, but tomorrow back into Springtime.
THIS is why my potatoes growing in the basement containers don't get to go outside just yet.
