The Weather Horse reports snow cover under the crabapple tree, overnight rain and showers downing the blossoms, off and on rain dropping other spent blooms and growing the grass, buttercups, horseradish and bringing forth the giant rhubarb flower – cloudy with gentle wind wafting lilac across the yard and mild temps, unstable humid air suggesting more precipitation to come, too wet to rototill and plant the garden today…

The Weather Horse scratching an itch, as usual between mouthfuls, in the misty morning – low clouds the air full of water – no shadows – no wind – no sunshine, mild temps with minimal black flies, swelling buds on the rhododendron promising summer soon, robins pulling wriggly worms, lilacs fully blooming sweetly scenting the early day.

The Weather Horse – 22 May 2013 – thunder and lightning rocked through the early hours, rain soaked the farm, the barn roof has a leak, Rev found Lancer not playful and hungry, more rain expected later with a window coming up for a few hours of cool dry eating, light breeze moving unstable air, a brief view of sun or brightening skies possible then not for a quite a while…

The Weather Horse out before sunrise, roosters crowing through the hush of thick air with clouds on the move, mild morning with a feel of summer, sun expected to raise temps, storms possible with changing conditions, eating – moving muscles on the jaw suggesting survival with treats of clover, quince bush glory fading while lilacs open with their lovely scent.

The Weather Horse and Rev heading for greener pastures – 20 May 2013 – cloudy start with the scent of lilacs heavy in the moist air, NW winds moving the damp morning aside for sun breaking through – raising temps later, cardinal sweetly singing its red song, violets riot in the lawn (that must not taste good) and longer, lusher grass growing down in the field for breakfast – a warm welcome to the new week!

The Weather Horse before the sun is up but not out – in clouds but not rain – in cool, dewy morning temps amidst the peak of the flowering crab apple – alert for a brief moment between voracious mouthfuls – very light breezes with no tail movement (save swishing the bugs) – a special girl graduates, again, today, Best Wishes to all!

The Weather Horse reports a beautiful, busy Saturday, 18 May 2013: A fox saw his shadow in the morning and said “I think I will eat a camel for lunch.” He saw his shadow at noon and said “A mouse will do.” Long shadows from bright sunshine – clouds expected to increase with mild temperatures and no rain – Happy Saturday!

The Weather Horse – 17 May 2013 – reports good eating grass thickening and delicious – full sun with long shadows – stiff wind blowing away black flies and keeping temps comfy – clouds may come later without bringing rain – TGIF

The Weather Horse – 15 May 2013 – reports a light frost on the field – clear skies to start with distinct shadows – still, cool morning air discouraging black flies – robins hollering out their song while working on worms – dogs growling at something only they can see or maybe smell – temperatures and clouds expected to increase coaxing out those crab apple blossoms – a fine May morning with Spring at its best!
