Weather whiplast, Part II

If you remember, a couple days ago we were expecting some weather whiplash in the form of dramatic temperature swings between Thursday and Friday.

I was marveling at the prediction of a thirty-five degree variance between one day and the next. Well as it turns out, the predictions were off. We had a forty-six degree variance between Thursday and Friday.

Thursday was a sizzling 93F at our place.

By afternoon, we suspended all outdoor work.

Songbirds were lifting their wings and opening their beaks to cool off.

Mr. Darcy stayed flat on his side as much as possible, trying to keep cool.

Clouds moved in by evening and it grew very humid.

Then the thermometer plummeted overnight and we woke up to rain and cool temperatures. The day never warmed up beyond 47F.

Yep, weather whiplash. Not that we mind the cooler temperatures; 93F was just too warm for early May.
