NW Okie has gone South towards Scottsdale, Arizona again for a few days and will hopefully be back Wednesday evening in the cool mountains of southwest Colorado where the highs rarely get into the 90s and the lows hang around the mid-fifties this time of year. Monsoons should be starting around here this month, also.
