Glub Glub??




Now wasn't yesterday a fine, fine day? It was so great I went through THREE four-
way stops and nary a person just sat there not knowing when to take their turn,
gumming up the works. The temperatures were pretty good, too.



Of course all good things must end, and that end is coming through NW OK right
now with winds of 30-40 mph and wind chills in February, chasing April right out
of the state.





Enough wind there to give folks up in NW OK a lovely wind advisory through about
3 p.m. for gusts of, again, up to 40 mph.



There will be very little in the way of moisture with this frontal system,
maybe a tenth or two down in far southern OK.



The big kicker is later this week into the weekend. Even though we are within
72-84 hours of the possible rain event, be wary of the chaos in those forecast
models for a storm that's still out over the ocean!



Be particularly mindful of the old "Southeast Shuffle" these storms often do
and they travel farther south and taking those rains along with them.

For now, we're hopeful!
