What day will it NOT rain?

Apparently none of them. Of course, not every location will get rain every day,
but it appears will will probably rain somewhere in the state each day. Segue to
our NWS friends for more info.





We're looking at some very generous totals in the 7-day precip forecast due to
all these rounds of storms as well.



And throughout the storminess, there will be a chance for severe weather, of course.
It is spring in Oklahoma, after all. So far, no bigtime severe weather outbreaks
appear imminent this week, but it always pays to be weather aware this time of
year. And if those rainfall totals come through, flooding could be a possibility.

That's it for now. Barely time for a tick, but better than a tock.

Enjoy the rain, avoid the storms!
