We had a high of minus 6 about 5 days ago. Today it's 36. Nothing abnormal about that here on the edge of the prairie.
Check out John Madson's Where the Sky Began and you can read some of the accounts of incredible temperature swings in just minutes on the prairie. Fascinating stuff, and fodder for current discussions of, as is trendy to call it now, "extreme weather."
