It's Cold

It may be October, but it feels like November, or even December. An arctic air mass has plunged into NE Kansas, bringing unseasonably-cold temperatures. I endured this cold snap first-hand, refereeing three soccer games on Saturday out in the cold. I can't remember ever refereeing games that were that cold. It was not fun to referee the games, although it was interesting to see a kid commit a blatant hand ball. He reached out and spiked it to the ground, drawing a yellow card, a rarity in recreational soccer.
Today was equally cold. Thankfully, I was able to spend the day inside.
This coming week will be warmer, but still cooler than normal. This cool Fall is fitting with the trend of a cool summer. If the weather continues to be this cool, it could be a cold winter.
