Is this ever going to make it to OKC?

Yes, line is solidifying and taking on a more eastward motion as the cold front has started to overtake it.

Heavy rain now in Stillwater. It's likely to go over an inch. Maybe tonight means the drought is going to be broken.

Now we're getting some rain.

Very weird to see some areas of the metro in the 80s and others in the mid-50s.

This storm track is going to leave Tinker high and dry...I know there is probably a scientific reason for why these storms that line up and track like this die out before reaching Tinker, but it is still annoying.

Mesonet in that part of the county measured 0.57"

That's fair. It kept building on itself, so I apologize.

Just hope OKC gets more over the weekend. The northern and eastern parts of the state got soaked, and OKC got barely a half an inch.

Ahhhh the rain was so nice. There was so much dust on our yard that when it first started, you could instantly smell wet dirt. Then that nice clean smell of rain came through. Extremely cathartic.

Looks like this will end up being our 4th warmest October on record, and warmest since 1963.

Also will be tied for our 8th driest October on record, and driest since 1958.

Slight risk for Storms Sunday and Monday. I see some that are saying Sunday is a better set up than yesterday but I haven't looked into things yet. I'll post in the November thread if things look interesting.

Looks like we are finally done with 80+ degree temps at least looking forward 10 days.

My part of Edmond (near Kickingbird GC) got 1.5" in the rain gauge! So grateful.
