MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... July 12, 1999 July 12, 1999 July 12, 1999 July 12, 1999 Same Concept, New Map At this point on the calendar last year, the Mangum Mesonet station had observed temperatures above 95 F on no less than forty-three days since May 1st. This year, the number is six. The complete list can be found at: http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/19990712/days95.gif Winter-time Wobble Makes July Cameo In the shallow, dense layer of cold air behind the cold front of late last week, a couple of Mesonet stations picked up on a phenomenon the Ticker referenced a few times over the winter. At the time, in a fit of hasty zeal, the Ticker called the event a "winter time phenomenon". Perhaps it would be more appropriate to refer to it as a "shallow layer of cool/cold air at the surface" phenomenon. In its own defense, the Ticker would like to point out that it is currently the dead of winter in Chile. Regardless, the phenomenon was captured fairly well at the Waurika site last night: http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/19990712/WAUR.met.gif Notice the "sloshing" phenomenon in the wind, temperature and (arguably) the pressure trace came in a tidy one-hour frequency last night. ================================================== The OCS/Mesonet Ticker https://ticker.mesonet.org/ To subscribe or unsubscribe from the Ticker or for questions about the Ticker or its content Phone or Email the Ticker Manager at OCS Phone: 405-325-2253 Email: ticker@mesonet.org --------------------------------------------------- -C- Copyright 2024 Oklahoma Climatological Survey ===================================================
