Today's National Severe Weather Risk: Slight

Tuesday, April 17, 2007

Looks like there's a pretty good possibility of at least one chase in the Fri-Sun time period, but I refrain from getting too optimistic until we get a better idea of the amount and depth of quality moisture that will be in place ahead of the dryline. The Gulf has been obliterated in the past week, so I'll remain on the pessimistic side until we see >65F Tds streaming past Austin and Houston.

As mentioned in a previous blog entry, Kim picked up a hedgehog from a fellow vet-schooler this past weekend. She took a picture of him yesterday:




Also, we fell for a mild-mannered, smart golden retriever "pup" this afternoon from the Guthrie animal shelter. Rainy (or Rainey -- I don't have the spelled decided upon yet) now makes the 6th pet in our household (an addition to the hedgehog, two rabbits, guinea pig, and cat). We don't have a fence yet, but she is remarkably calm, so that shouldn't be of pressing importance. We started crate training this evening, but, admittently, this will be somewhat limited until we can get her into a larger crate/kennel.



I'm running a little short on weather-related pet names. So far, we have Windy, Hailey, Vorty, and Rainy. Any ideas? Stormy, misty, gale, stratus/strato, nimby/nimbus, Rossby, ... ?
