UNUSUAL WEATHER SHOCKS HORIZON CITY
By R. Jonas Bush
Residents of Horizon city Texas were shocked by some very unusual weather on January 31st. Severe winds caused dust and dirt storms all afternoon. The winds proved to be strong enough to knock over a child! Then, on February 1st, snow fell, and the temperature dropped to 8 degrees. The next day, Groundhog Day, the temperature dropped to a measly 2 degrees! That day the power to Horizon City went out twice, once in the morning for 2 hours, and once in the evening for 30 minutes. All city activities and most stores were closed. That night, all the city water pipes froze, leaving Horizon City with no running water.
Mr. Robert Bush, a local resident said, “One day it’s 70 degrees, the next it’s 2 and snowing! I’m almost afraid to go outside! Who knows what nature will whip up next!”
