Wed., Aug. 1, 2012 Map of Today's High Temps

Hello August!

Do y'all think it was hot enough today?

On a day like this I wonder why any of us think we can keep our plants alive and happy in Oklahoma in the summertime.

Not surprisingly, some cities or Mesonet stations set new record high temperatures for this date today. For some of those cities or Mesonet stations (we have to laugh at this or we'll cry) the last previous record for this date was set way back in good old 2011. Y'all do remember the delightful garden-killing summer of 2011 right?

I've linked the Mesonet Max Temp Map below.

Read it and weep.

For many of us, tomorrow will be just as bad, or even worse.

If any of you are looking at this map on Thursday, you'll probably be seeing Thursday's data instead of Wednesday's, but I'm not sure. If that is the case, you can go to the Mesonet home page, go to the Temperature Page and page down to the 'yesterday's map' near the bottom of the page.

Oklahoma's high temps earned a mention on Dr. Masters' blog at Weather Underground this afternoon and I believe one word he used to describe our high temps was 'ridiculous'.
