I hope it turns to winter temps here and across the country so the martins don't move north to soon. The way its been going I wouldn't doubt the martins might move north which is bad. January and Feb are usually our coldest months.

I have a feeling you wont be wishing for cold weather when it is cold in march when it is supposed to be warm. I still well rember the cold and snow that we had here in may last spring.

A few early heat waves and a few late cold waves is the norm........can't remember a spring ever where that didn't happen.

This month of Jan. was the warmest ever recorded in Missouri, I still hope for 4 more weeks of winter. The 7 day forcast doesn't look good. Still alot of days in the 50's or close to it.

Randy I looked at the 10 day forecast and it looks a little better, but still a lot of 50's and some in 40's. I just don't want the pm's here to early and then die because of cold weather. Not anything I can do just worried.
