If you would have told me at the start of March that the end of May was going to be the same temperature – and still sunny! – I would have politely disagreed.
But here we are.
This has been and will continue to be quite the weekend. Please – PELASE! – do your best to take five minutes and enjoy the weather. We aren’t given this kind of nice weather for no reason very often. Usually we have to earn this kind of weather with severe storms, a hurricane nearby, or some sort of looming potential weather disaster.
We get this one for free!
The nice weather holds on through about Tuesday. Then things start to feel more like late May along the central Gulf Coast. Hot returns. Humid returns. Afternoon storms return.
