MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... March 11, 2019 March 11, 2019 March 11, 2019 March 11, 2019 Ugh http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/3day-rain-forecast.png (if you wanna see the forecast map without the "Hangover" guys (and monkey), here ya go. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/3day-rain-forecast.gif I'm gonna be honest with ya...Daylight Savings Time kicked my behind this year (and I said "behind" because I didn't want to say "butt" in the Ticker). Usually when we do the switch, I take it in stride. Part of that is because I woke up yesterday to a cold, windy and wet day, and that's basically what the forecast is for the next 3 days. Not everybody received rain over the weekend. It was another one of those I-44 storms (if you were NW of I-44, you were out of luck by and large). http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/rainrfc.72hr.png And that area of the state definitely needs some rain. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/60days.meso.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/60days.norm_pct.png Well, here comes the rain and gray skies. We'll even have a flood risk across far western Oklahoma, which would go a long way to dampen their drought risk. "Dampen." Get it? I didn't either. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/nws-tulsa-rain.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/nws-norman-flood-risk.png At least we'll see temperatures start to rise through Wednesday before our next front, then we'll start the process all over again. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/nws-norman-7day-temps.png And Wednesday will be windy! Not sure how your umbrellas will work that day, so maybe a face shield of some type is in order. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/nws-tulsa-wed-winds.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/nws-norman-wed-winds.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20190311/latest.oklahoma.winds.gif Cold then warm, gray skies, windy, wet...like the first graphic says, just go back to bed!
