MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... November 2, 2022 November 2, 2022 November 2, 2022 November 2, 2022 Twisted https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/day2probotlk_0600_torn.png Some folks may be saying to themselves "But Gary, why do you show the tornado risk map when its so low?" QUIT CALLING YOURSELF GARY IF YOUR NAME ISN'T GARY! And it's "it's", not "its"! If you're going to be delusional, lern to spel. Any anyway, you don't want to be Gary. "Most unpopular baby boy names of 2022" Kobe, Jeffrey, Nigel, Ashton, Graham, Stuart, Chad, Gary, Bill Welcome to the party, Bill. Anyway, back to the delusions...I mean weather. I figure if we get folks to sit up and take notice because of tornadoes, then they'll be prepared for just about anything. Wind is probably the biggest hazard we'll be looking at, although all modes of severe weather are possible. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/day2otlk_0600.gif https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/day2probotlk_0600_wind.gif https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/day2probotlk_0600_hail.gif Likely late into the night on Thursday, storms will form in the eastern Panhandles and start marching east. As we go into early Friday, the risk continues. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/day3otlk_0730.gif So possibly two rounds of storms, ahead of the front along the dryline, then along the front as it gets farther east. The system has sped up a bit, so less rain that what we were originally looking at. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/3day-rain-forecast.gif Already starting to see those southerly winds increase and the moisture stream north from the Gulf, which is key to the whole deal. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/current-winds.png https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/current-dewpoints.png The southerly winds and moist air will be keeping our morning lows warm enough to be on the unusual side. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/thursday-forecast-lows.png https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/friday-morning-lows.png Other than a brief blip following the cold front, we're gonna stay as we have much of 2022...on the warmer than normal side. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/nws-norman-7day-temps.png But don't look now. Okay, now look. We're seeing signs in the larger pattern of our first actual winter-ish type of air from the north coming later next week, like next weekend or so. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/nov9-15-temp-outlook.png This would be lows in the 20s and highs in the 40s type of stuff. And a bit of snow across northern OK is starting to show up in the fantasy-cast territory. https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20221102/fantasy-snow.png Hey, it's 2022. Anything could happen!
