Well, it's that time of year again. They're calling for possibly severe weather in Houston later this afternoon and the wind is howling something fierce out there. I hope the folks in Throckmorton County are taking cover. Guess I'd better turn Fox News off and put on something local.

This time of year is just about right. On April 10th, 1979, a big one hit Wichita Falls. It took two days before I found out my family was ok.

I'm east of Dallas in Mesquite and I have a program called Weatherbug. It gives a very good report on the weather for my zip code right here on my computer. It's free at Weatherbug.com. The only thing I did with it that I have to warn people about is that there is a warning sound like a chirp that I had to disable because of all of the alerts in Texas.
