MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... April 21, 2014 April 21, 2014 April 21, 2014 April 21, 2014 Glub glub! Not a toad-strangler, at least not as of this morning, but more glorious rain fell over the weekend. Some parts of the state that have needed the wet stuff terribly for quite awhile finally got a nice drink of water as well. And the good news is it is still raining in some areas! Look for the greens on this map to see who has received the most so far. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20140421/rainrfc.48hr.png Notice down in Jackson and Harmon counties the radar/gauge estimated rainfall colors indicate some folks received more than three inches, possibly. A very small band, perhaps, but somebody got a bunch of rain down there. Also, Ketchum Ranch led the state with 2.23 inches in the gauge, so Stephens County folks also received some very nice widespread rains. Those most out of luck appear to be far northern Oklahoma, although as I said, there is still rain moving through the state. Maybe they'll get a bit in awhile, but it does look like things have moved to the east up that way. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20140421/current-radar.png And if you missed out this weekend, there might be some more coming your way in the middle and latter parts of the week. As usual, be on the lookout for severe weather. 'tis the season, as they say! http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20140421/nws-norman1.jpg http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20140421/nws-norman2.jpg We are still seeing some hefty amounts on the 7-day moisture forecast, although keep in mind some of that stems from this morning's rainfall chances. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20140421/7day-rainfall-forecast.gif As I've said all along, there isn't really a reason to expect a dry spring this year, so maybe Mother Nature is FINALLY coming around to our side and we can smash some drought before summer arrives. Looks good this week, at least. Gary McManus State Climatologist Oklahoma Mesonet Oklahoma Climatological Survey (405) 325-2253 gmcmanus@mesonet.org
