Frontal Position

An interesting way to keep track of the front's position (relative to
yesterday) is to look at the 24-hour Mesonet Temperature Change map.
It shows the temperature difference at each station, compared to
24 hours ago.  It is updated every 15 minutes at:




100+ Club

Today is the 39th consecutive day that at least one Mesonet station has
observed 100+ degree temperatures.

Ardmore, Grandfield, Lane, Tishomingo, Walters and Waurika have already
topped 100 for the 18th straight day.

Yesterday, 86 of 114 Oklahoma Mesonet stations topped 100F.
