June bog

Remember that point in "Die Hard" where Hans tells that little rat Theo about how
to get the circuits-that-cannot-be-cut, to actually be cut?
"You asked for miracles, Theo, I give you the F.B.I."
Yeah, those circuits are cut automatically in the event of a terrorist attack,
faked or not, and sometimes after a dry May, June can provide similar miracles
in terms of rainfall. In fact, fiction, AND delirium, many parts of Oklahoma have
already seen more rainfall in the first half-or-so of June than they did in all
of May.

Hey, I can hear you from those places that still haven't received their fair share
(you kiss your Mother with that mouth??). Check out the June-thus-far deficit
map for those unfortunate colors.

Argh! Places like Goodwell and Watonga, Foraker and Hollis...you're still
hurting. Eastern Oklahoma...how about sharing in that bounty (to continue the
pirate theme)?
Heck, it's raining right now for crying out loud! Well, sorta.

The rain's not over, but it's definitely slowing down this week.

Next week's looking up, maybe?

Hey, at least YOU didn't get a 96 mph wind gust on Friday night at 9:10 pm. No,
that was at Eva! Mother Nature threw in a 70 mph gust 10 minutes later.

You should watch out for Wednesday, however. It's gonna be a doozy.

Other than that, not too shabby!


Doozies are always worse than shabbies.
