February 2021 - well I never

My Grandmother Addie would have said, "Well I never." That's what I'm thinking about this month of February, 2021. We have been on a roller coaster of weather events from moderate cold dropping to let-the-faucets-drip all night freezing, from ice storm to having the ice layer completely covered over in a snow storm. Afterward, we moved into sunshine and temperatures soaring to turn-off-all-the-heat mid 60s.

At least the snow was gone, back to normal Kentucky February winter, right? Wrong, tonight, as we prepare to leave the month behind, we are experiencing thunder, lightening, winds and a full day of torrential rains causing a night of flooding as if it were April. So if Addie was sitting here in her green rocker, lights flickering, thunder rumbling and rain hitting the metal porch roof like bullets, we'd nod to each other and say in unison, "Well I never."
