Hating this weather pattern in OK

It's been misty foggy cold and rainy for the last frigging week. Getting pretty damn old. Going to work highway signs in Tulsa and McAlister today. Hope we don't get the pickup stuck...


Rant off...

Yea, we make our living with aerial photography. With 200 to 300 ft ceilings we have been grounded for a long time. We have a ton of flying to get done when it finally clears.

Here in Wisconsin it has been 40's and rainy for what seems like weeks now. Lows at night have even been in the high 20s. The average high should be 60 but we've been lucky to get to 50. My guess is this has to be a record for the coldest October. Some areas even had snow on the ground.

Why do you guys in the Northern states always complain about the weather? YOU LIVE IN THE FROZEN NORTH! It would be like us Southerners complaining about the women here wearing too little clothing when it gets hot...

MOVE ALREADY!!!

Wow - If this thread isn't a cry-out for PARF to return to PPOT, I don't know what is.

I wish it would get cold and rainy here. Still in bad need of rain and the heat index at noon was 109. Last week the heat index was over 110 several days in a row. Fortunately a front is due in tonight which sill lower temps back to what should be high 70's low 80's range and drive the humidity down.

Record high and record high humidity. We may have a heat advisory. In October!

I think you guys gripeing about the weather should join me in Crystal Falls, MI for deer hunting next month. Find Green Bay, WI on a map, then start looking north.

2 years ago, we got 18 inches of snow overnight. When we got up in the morning it was 4 degrees, and by afternoon it had reached a balmy 12. Froze my a55 off.

Yes but you were in an area that supposed to be cold. It's supposed to be warm and sunny here this time of year...
