Begone pests




Or losers. Some say winners, I sez losers. Come on, don't you agree with me that
there's nothing worse than a bright and sunny cold day? Now a gray and snowy
cold day, that's something we can work with. Even just plain old gray (hey, Plain
Old Gray was my band's name in Beverly Hills 90210!) would be a step up. Sunny
days are just wasted in winter. Some say it kills off pests, but the pests seem
to always stick around. I HEARD THAT! This is Ticker #3661, you know, although
the cold does seem to kill me.

And when we actually look at just how much it has frozen at those Mesonet sites
that have hit 32 or lower...well, it ain't that much.



We see you Eva, with your 9 hours at or below freezing! Now remember these are
localized measurements at Mesonet sites, so some of those localized (again)
areas that get freezes early might not be represented here, like in some of those
bottoms. And this is freezing, whereas some folks might have gotten a frost as
well not captured by the Mesonet's air temperature sensors 1.5 meters above
the ground.

One more thing not accounted for on the top map...we also had a freeze this
morning in far SE OK.



We're still on a warm track, with a bit of a cooldown after a cold front on
Wednesday. Next chance of a freeze is maybe Friday morning.







Nothing crazy going on there. Standard boring fall weather. Rain? No, no rain
this week, but next week is looking up, possibly.





Don't worry about the boring. It'll be non-boring soon enough.
