"Oh, hello there, weather aficionados of Oklahoma! Guess what? A cold front is
sashaying its way into our beloved state on Thursday. That's right, folks, Mother
Nature is about to drop it like it's hot... or rather, not hot at all. From Friday
through Sunday, we're talking temperatures cooler than a snowman’s backside in
August. So, pack away those bikinis and break out the snuggies, because it’s
gonna be refreshingly cool for summer. Time to enjoy the freaky weather roller
coaster and soak in the unexpected chill. Stay frosty, my friends!"
Sorry, that's the best PG-rated Deadpool I could do. And this is about the best
anybody could do for an early-August cooldown. The front arrives in NW OK on
Thursday then overspreads the state over the next 24 hours. Should get some
showers and storms forming in the High Plains and then heading our way in the
NW flow around the periphery of the heat dome to the west, its meandering that way
allowing the cold front to slip through. Pretty nice temps setting up, just like
we detailed yesterday, but maybe the rain chances are slipping a bit farther south
along with the milder air.

That rain is sorely needed farther south, so let's hope it spreads out a bit
more through the weekend. "And enjoy the cool air, ladies and gentlemen, gather
'round, because I've got some news hotter than Ryan Reynolds in a red spandex
suit! Just when you thought you could dust off those pumpkin spice vibes,
Mother Nature's like, "Psych! We're going full blast furnace again next week!"
Again with the PG Deadpool?

Like I said, enjoy it now and believe me later.

This week, however...two more hot days.
Bye Bye Bye.
