Kinda

"Kinda" is a great word for clodhoppers like myself. For example: I'm kinda dumb, as demonstrated by my wearing of two different shoes yesterday to the OKC Outlet Mall, which escaped me EVEN WHEN I WAS TRYING ON SHOES. "Kinda" might be being kind(a), admittedly. I've also been described as kinda smelly, kinda goofy, kinda funny looking, and kinda awesome.
That last one comes from me, but it's allowed because I'm kinda delusional. But kinda is a good word for this week as we deal with "kinda" hot weather, but also very much "kinda" like August. The best part is we don't see heat index values up into the 110s, which is a welcome change. Not saying they won't be elevated, but at least not sky high.

"Kinda" goes out the window when we talk about rain chances, though, because it's gonna be "really" dry this week, save for maybe the Panhandle and NW OK later on with some minor rain chances. We are definitely starting to dry out significantly again. August being August, you know.
