austin weather takes a chilling turn one last time this year.

the weather in austin took a turn back towards winter this week. it has been cool, cool, cool, and very breezy. this morning it's still coolish, but it seems sunnier and a little less windy. maybe it will warm up by afternoon. late winter weather always startles us in austin. Around mid-march we get our minds set that the weather will just keep continuing to get warmer. a sudden cool front like this so late in the month of march puts us all in a dither. at least it wasn't freezing weather with ice. that's happened here before, as late as the beginning of april. according to the predictions i have been seeing, it looks like we're gonna be in for a long hot summer. melting asphalt hot. it's not so bad if you can spend your days inside the air conditioning or draped by a pool. unfortunately for those of us out and about in the heat, it can be unbearable. so i'm enjoying our last bit of coolness before the sweltering heat takes over.
