MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... September 28, 2020 September 28, 2020 September 28, 2020 September 28, 2020 The lucky few http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/oct5-11-precip-outlook.png Now before you go and say "Gary, you're awesome," well, okay, go ahead and say that. Sorry, that slipped out. Now before you go and say "WE DON'T NEED MORE RAIN,' trust me, there are folks all across the western half or so of the state, bleeding across much of the northern third of Oklahoma, that definitely do. I'm not prone to run-on sentences, but that needed said. So yes, there were a few LUCKY folks across eastern Oklahoma that needed rain and actually got it with last night's summer-strangling cold front. Other than that, few and far between. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/12hour-rain-totals.png Unfortunately, that run of bad luck is going to continue for the near future. You can see next week's bad outlook, and this week is not looking too good either, at least for western Oklahoma. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/5day-rain-forecast.gif We're gonna see a slight warm up with some strong southerly winds Wednesday, then another strong but DRY front will come through and scour us of any semblance of warmth yet again. Our best hope is later into the weekend, but again, not a great chance for western Oklahoma. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/wednesday-forecast-temps.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/nws-tulsa-7day-temps.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/nws-norman-7day-temps.png We're going to have to survive a brush with November tomorrow morning, however. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/tuesday-morning-lows.png As for that front...wow. For some reason, I wasn't quite expecting such a blast. You know, being a weather person and all, why would I?? The winds along and behind there front were just plain dumb, and they stayed elevated for most of the evening following the 20-degree temperature drop. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/KIN2.met.gif http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/yesterday.gust.gif With winds continuing from the north at 20-25mph, gusting to over 35mph, there will be fire danger concerns across western Oklahoma. This is a motif you're going to need to get used to, I'm afraid, given our dry weather pattern and all these dry cold fronts barrelling through. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/nws-amarillo-todays-winds.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20200928/nws-norman-fire.danger.png Dry cold fronts, the Almond Joy of all air mass intrusions. Pray for moisture return soon! Gary McManus State Climatologist Oklahoma Mesonet Oklahoma Climatological Survey (405) 325-2253 gmcmanus@mesonet.org
