MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... November 29, 2023 November 29, 2023 November 29, 2023 November 29, 2023 Remember when it rained? https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20231129/dry-november.png YOU may have gotten rain where you live, but I haven't seen a good rain in 483 days. Excuse me? *I* exaggerate? Well it's drizzled, sprinkled, snowed, hailed, sleeted, dusted, tornadoed, blowed (work with me), graupeled, baked, melted, AND cherry Pop-Tarted at my place, but no rain. Okay, I DO exaggerate, but as you can tell for most of the state, November has been a dud precip-wise. That's why tomorrow's storm system is so important. The snow forecast--meager as it was--appears to have evaporated, but still hopeful for some decent moisture from this storm. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20231129/48hour-rain-forecast.png https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20231129/48hour-snow-forecast.png It's not a lot for May, but it is for November. It's also been cold, which for drought purposes is something of a boon (English to Okie translation: a good thing) since it helps limit evaporation from the soil. Check out this statewide average low temperature graph from the Mesonet for November thus far. Started out cool (It was Halloween-time, so of course it was cold), got really warm for the middle of the month, then a blast from winter for our cold mornings. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20231129/statewide-avg-lows-depart.png That's not gonna last, of course, as we talked about yesterday. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20231129/dec6-12-temp-outlook.png Now some folks actually like it to be cold. They're a very strange people... they also prefer Cheez-Its over Cheese Nips. Strawberry milk to chocolate milk. And we KNOW what kind of Pop-Tarts, don't we? That's okay. It will get cold again. Heck, it's cold right now for crying out loud! https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20231129/current-wind.chills.png Whoa, that IS cold. Wait a week...
