Burn!
https://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20240220/that-70s-show.png I don't have much today, which is like most days except...Tuesday. Our attention continues to be drawn to the forecast shiny object, otherwise known as EARLY SPRING! It's okay though. We have to make up for that miserable January, no?
If you look at our average temperature trace for 2024 thus far (English to Okie translation: "so far"), you can see for each dip, there is a peak, just as for each Ticker, there is also a dip...errr, author.

And then there's tomorrow, which continues the peaking.

As we said yesterday, "the." We said much more than "the," of course, like how we'll see a front for Thursday, but it'll just drop us down to a bit above normal instead of way above normal. But then it's back to spring as we finish out the month on a warm note.

Remember as a dumb man (yea, me!) once said...better boring warm than boring cold.
