MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... February 7, 2018 February 7, 2018 February 7, 2018 February 7, 2018 Weather at the podium http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20180207/olympics-weather.png Sorry, the panel of judges on the Ticker consists of one person, and that's ME! I'm giving this morning's temperatures a -7.0, which is what it feels like at Beaver. That's good for a Bronze. I'll go ahead and give Friday's highs a 5.0, after deductions for no 70s on the map. That's a silver. And then summer gets the gold. We (me) gave June 26, 2011, a 9.5. We had some hundreds, but we deducted 0.5 points because it was a bit too hot even for our tastes. The rest of this winter didn't place because of drought. But it did rain a bit yesterday. No doubt some of that freezing rain that fell and caused so many accidents just to the southeast of I-44 still has to melt and register on the Mesonet's rain gauges. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20180207/rainrfc.24hr.png Still nothing, though, for the rest of the state. Drought has taken firm hold over all of Oklahoma, and little relief is in sight. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20180207/mesonet.rainfall.tenthinch.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20180207/mesonet.rainfall.quarterinch.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20180207/7day-precip-forecast.gif Next week, maybe? We'll believe it when we see it. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20180207/feb14-20-precip-outlook.gif By the way, Feb. 10, 2011, is disqualified for steroids. Winter on steroids, that is. http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20180207/disqualified.png Gary McManus State Climatologist Oklahoma Mesonet Oklahoma Climatological Survey (405) 325-2253 gmcmanus@mesonet.org ================================================== 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 ===================================================
