Oklahoma Weather & Gas Prices

"Our weather the past two days has been almost unbelievably warm. The daytime temperature has been in the 70s for a change (and the wind has been quite strong again). More grass fires. They called in 'mutual-aid' fire trucks from 4 surrounding towns to help fight fires that threatened 2 houses today (and finally got them under control in time). They were keeping 3 tanker trucks busy carrying more water to the brush fire trucks and for awhile were concerned that a truck or two might get 'stuck' in the path of the flames that had gotten into a grove of trees. Lots of 'hot spots' were rekindling both yesterday and today. I suspect that the guys were pretty tired (I should have said guys and 'gals' because the women sometimes don't like to be referred to as 'guys' and I know that one of the tankers was driven by a female and I heard two females manning radios for their communications on my scanner.

Also the gas prices climbed some more. Today they were at $3.09.9 which is a new high for Perry I think." -- Roy K.
