AHS Class of 72 I remember vividly how unpredictable spring can be up your way. I even remember a year that it snowed like crazy in May - of course it didn't stick but it really did snow very hard for a while.

I grew up thinking that the expression "if you don't like the weather, wait 15 minutes and it'll change" was written about Taylor County

And I'll admit, I carried all of my baby 'maters inside last night, and was glad I did - even down here 50 miles from Houston, it dipped to 32 right before sun-up this morning.
