Some models want to deluge our area with tons of precip this weekend, PW's up to 2.25" on some, rainfall amounts as high as 1/2'.

67.1°F Overcast

Interesting fact. The SST on Dec 21st of this past year was 53°F, several months later and days of heating and already nearing the summer solstice, the SST only increased 6°F to 59°F.

"Mama" by Genesis

This song really brings out my emotions. I have never been so deeply emotionally involved with a song ever before. The song's better with more bass, which YT doesn't have much of. Starts off soft, then becomes a head bashing song.

Genesis - Mama (album version with lyrics)

73.6°F Fair

Cooling off finally. Wouldn't be surprised if that's our only "heat wave" (wasn't an official heat wave here though) this summer. It's happened before.

That's crazy. Glad that they are safe. Goes to show the real dangers of being a storm chaser.

I find myself killing time on Google Maps and Google Street View a lot.    I take it in cycles, though.  Right now, I'm not going on it that much, but I can easily spend half a day on it if I'm in the right mood.

Yeah, it's kinda addicting. I like studying the area and other areas. I love viewing historical imagery and comparing it to today. Now that we have street view, it completes it all

60.8°F Sunny

Low of 44.5°F, 34°F at KFOK, and 51°F at MTP, amazing difference when these stations are only 20 miles apart.
