AWAITING WEATHER PATTERNS

AWAITING WEATHER PATTERNS

Feeling so hot and muggy,

The waiting is driving us buggy…

It feels like a storm

When  this warm,

The “delay” is starting to bug me.

It clouds up afternoons

And overnight, hiding new moons…

Weather radar

Says storms are far,

Away from where one assumes.

A cyclone’s strong rotating

People’s lives are exasperating…

Just one bad storm

Makes folks mourn

Evacuation  hesitating!

WOOLIE CATERPILLARS’ WARNING

WOOLIE CATERPILLARS’ WARNING

 

Now what does the brown middle mean,

Is it how long until spring?

According to lore

If of brown there is more,

A milder winter is the thing.

Of course, sample size

Is small enough to realize…

That proper data

Sent prorata

Is rarely decently-sized.

The result is it is for fun

We trouble this black and brown one…

It may not be true,

It is up to you

To “measure” the winter that will come.
