Snow Melt

Weather Report

Jalál (Glory), 4 Jalal (Glory), 165 B.E. - Saturday, April 12, 2008 about 6:19 PM PDT

March winds
Bring April showers
That bring May flowers

The winds came in February this year
blowing down trees all over Las Vegas
and downing power lines in parts of town.

The little rain that's came
is just enough to keep the weeds happy,
but does nothing for the desert landscaping;
the cactus may not bloom this year.

April is half over
with only the promise of clouds
that make the unusually cool weather
even colder.

Summer is coming
and we're still paying off the winter power bill,
the weeds in the yard are growing
even in the unusually cool temperatures.

If this weird weather is the result of global warming
then I want to move to a planet
with warmer temperatures and normal weather.
