The weather in this neck of the woods has been very strange lately.
It seems like we are experiencing two different seasons at the same time.
During the day, the weather has been sunny with scattered clouds and blue skies. There has been a light breeze in the air. To be perfectly honest, the weather is totally perfect during the day. Unfortunately, as soon as the sun goes down the temperature starts to rapidly fall and the weather changes abruptly. Even though it feels like spring during the day, it definitely feels like fall or winter during the evening. I like to keep the windows open for a nice flow of cool air during the day, but I have to use a furnace during the evening. I have a small propane furnace that hates the house nicely. Not a propane furnace uses about 25 pounds of fuel every 2 or 3 weeks. It’s expensive to run the propane furnace, but I don’t have much choice when the nighttime temperatures are close to freezing. My little house needs heat and I refuse to spend thousands of dollars to upgrade to central heat. The propane furnace works just fine most of the time. The weather is erratic, but we only have a few more weeks of these temperature fluctuations. The weather person said it was due to an arctic front that lays in the valley at night but rises higher during the day. I don’t understand anything the lady says, but I hope she is right on the mark.
