MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... July 22, 1999 July 22, 1999 July 22, 1999 July 22, 1999 It's Not the Heat. It's the humidity. But it's a dry heat. etc... Today, temperatures have risen into the mid 90s in western Oklahoma and into the low 90s in eastern Oklahoma. So why are heat index values higher in the east? It's because eastern Oklahoma's temperatures are carrying a little baggage, in the form of mid 70s dewpoint temperatures. Western Oklahoma is basking in comparatively dry mid 60s dew points.
