Wacky Weather

New Mexico certainly has a crazy weather pattern as it changes from winter to spring. The wind blows in from all different directions, and brings all the different waves of weather you can think of... except rain it seems. After living in Seattle where the wind always blows west to east, this has been quite a change for us.

All last week the high was in the 70's, it was sunny and windy. Sunday afternoon was about 85 degrees.

Sunday night the wind changed direction, and started blowing in cold air and storm clouds. We awoke Monday morning to a snow covered ground. Not just frost, but snow. Monday the high was only 50 degrees and the wind was super chilly.

Today, Tuesday, it is still sunny, still windy, and the predicted high 72 degrees.

No wonder everyone here is getting sick all the time...
