Hmmm..., hail with 100 MPH winds would cause some damage to windows in houses, I would think... hoo-boy!

Excellent USA radar weather map from NOAA at the link below.

Everyone stay safe; I’ve been through these types of storms before. They’re no fun at all. We’ll have another bad one before winter is out up here on the Tundra. ;)

How many inches of global warming are they expecting?

Warm globally, cool locally. (the new eco-Leftist AGW mantra)

And for this area (of Oklahoma)..., take a look at the South Plains Sector loop...

You were saying ...

Well, I remember back in the 70s and 80s it was colder than it had been for the last 20 years, so it did warm up during that period of time. There were warmer winters and less "Silver Thaws" than there had been before.

But, now, it's turned, back to the colder winters, once again. It's related to us being in a Dalton Minimum-type of period (with the Sunspots) and how that affects the radiation from outer space in "cloud formation"...

That's what is causing this recent downturn and colder winter weather that we're having... and it's the cosmic radiation being able to reach the earth easier, from the solar winds being slower than normal. The cosmic radiation is the main factor in cloud formation and that's what causing the cooler weather recently.

I just talked with my daughter in Bartlesville OK. They are having a slight drizzle there with temps in the high 30’s. My son in Dallas reports a slight drizzle off and on, and warm temps—he’s not sure, but says it’s high 40’s or lo 50’s.

I hope so too. It would be nice to actually have snow again in the winter.

I think that's quite outdated information. Now, yesterday it was up to 60 degrees in Tulsa, but today, it's icing up on everything, and Bartlesville always gets it worse than Tulsa.

I just checked the temperature in Bartlesville and it's 29 degrees according to one source that I have. And I just checked the historical information (from midnight, last night) in Bartlesville and the temperature has not been above freezing (except maybe by one degree at around noon today), and went down right after that.

If you want to see the latest and most detailed information... take a look at the link below.


A good link for detailed weather forecast information in this area, updated all the time (given by FReeper "T-Bird45")...
