Oklahoma Weather (01/17/2008)

"We had a mist that changed to light rain and it ultimately changed to freezing rain and light snow when that hard-driving wind came in from the north (shortly before 5 P.M. yesterday, Jan. 16, 2008) but it quit again last night and channel 9 weather-man Gary England told us 'not to worry' that it would go away today (Jan. 17), while the 'weather-wizard-from-Hell' at the ABC outlet was trying to scare everyone (as usual) into hiding under the covers for the rest of Winter. They must really be hard-up for viewers there, the way they keep warning us to watch their news and weather or we'll suffer the consequences. Hmm...... I don't think this green tea will ever take the place of the taste of coffee.

Our gasoline prices have dropped back down to $2.89.9 (1/18/2008) and perhaps they'll stay down for awhile this time. We'll just have to wait and see. Especially after this new 'arctic front' comes through. Think I'll quit now and get some rest.

Oklahoma gas was 10-cents too high on the gas prices here in Perry. They're at $2.79.9 (1/19/2008) and we're expecting the temperatures to drop below 20 degrees tonight (Saturday).

My little "min-pin' (miniature-pinscher) stays outside so long as I think she can stand it, but if it's dark or icy (or more than an inch of snow covering the ground) I let her in (shut up in the bathroom) while I'm at work. Her dog house isn't heated, but it's dry and she'll stay in it so long as the squirrels don't 'annoy' her.

It's sunny again today, but chilly. I certainly don't want any of that -70 (Greenland) or even your -17, but I suppose we'll take whatever comes along. I presume that you heard about the frozen lakes up north and that place where they were concerned about Global Warming has had the hardest freeze in about 100 years. I wonder if Niagara Falls will freeze solid again like it did in 1932 or '33 (I have pictures of that one). " -- Roy K.
