MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... MESONET TICKER ... May 3, 2017 May 3, 2017 May 3, 2017 May 3, 2017 Rain-gry http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20170503/rain.gry.png Oh, we'll get to the cold in a minute, but first, was this really necessary, Mother Nature? Add a bit of moisture onto the lake that was already known as "Oklahoma?" We didn't need 4 inches, we needed 6. We didn't need 6 inches, we needed 8.

And no, I'm not talking about the folks that are standing in mud but still saying "hey, we'll need this come August," which is POSSIBLY correct, but all at once??

This is el Tres de Mayo, for crying out loud (sorry, I celebrate on the 3rd). Better get those bathing suits on because the temperature is going to go up like, 5 or 6 degrees! http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20170503/current-temps.png http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20170503/todays-forecast-highs.png Calm down? I'm just getting started! Why I oughta... http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20170503/7day-planner.png Well, okay. That doesn't look so bad. I guess that will be... http://ticker.mesonet.org/archive/20170503/may10-16-temp-outlook.gif NOOOOOOOOO!!!
