Cold,
windy and drizzly here in the Little Rock, Arkansas area today,
Sunday, March 21, 2010, the second day of Spring. After high
temperatures near 70 yesterday, it was 39 degrees today with dark
clouds and drizzle. Northwest and West Arkansas had up to 10 inches of
snow last night and Sunday. I only got three trains today at Union
Station because Union Pacific is working on major track upgrades both
on the Little Rock and White Bluff Subs, so the lines were curfewed at
times.
