Someone mentioned to me recently that if you do not like the weather in Cincinnati then just wait a few days.Well,that is how fast things change around here.We hit the beginning of March with clear sunny blue skies and spring in the air.Within a couple of weeks the temps soared and the biting cold winter seemed like a distant memory.It clocked in the late seventies and early eighties for couple of weeks making people switch to summer gear-shorts,shades...the parks were abuzz with activity in the evenings and the children and the adults gorged on ice creams.It was beautiful almost an early summer!.
And suddenly out of nowhere,this cold front hits.Within a space of a single day the temp dropped from the eighties to the thirties.There is a freeze warning in effect tonight!.Jeez!....that's some drop.It certainly made me forget the lovely summer and it was back to icy winds and heavy coats.What a difference a day can make in this place.
I guess with global warming playing havoc with weather patterns the world over this should not come as a surprise.Back home in Bangalore we are pretty much used to similar climate throughout the year.The summers there are beginning to become really hot though much less humid than many other parts of India.
I know its the Brits who are the ones so fussy about the weather but a drop from 82 to 23 in 24 hours sure made me write this blog!.Hope summer's back next week in Cincinnati.
