Default Bad day in Oklahoma

Hmm, around here, there has been very little to forcast. A few minor rain
events, a couple of temperature dips.

It has just been a mild, nothing of a winter.


We've had three very distinct winters on three months.

December was unbelievable -- like something out of the 1970s. Snow every
day, day after day, and bone-chilling cold. I shoveled something like 17
days in a row. Almost no good flying weather.

January was very warm. Lots of low clouds, ice, not a lot of measurable
snow, but cloud and poor vis nearly every day.
Almost no good flying weather.

February gradually grew colder, and more winter-like. Near the end of the
month, we had a solid 10 days of good flying weather. We actually had a few
fly-in guests during this time.

March? It's sucked, so far. Never got off the ground yesterday or today.
