Has limited my snowfall for the year to one mediocre dusting in the middle of December. This winter is bogus! We have fire warnings today, it's barely rained since November. We didn't even get a half inch in December and not a drop of anything this month. Drought feeds drought and a miserable summer

Yeah, I've noticed that OkC and much of Oklahoma have gotten hardly ANY snow this year. Usually when you get snow, it's in December and January.

I haven't seen a decent accumulation of snow (more than 1 inch) here in my town since 2003 but that is nothing new for here.

Nameless, if you like consistent snowfalls and cold for winter, you need to head north. I'll trade you.

I'm thinking warmer than normal summer, gang, to follow this strange winter we are having!

Most of the people in Oklahoma are so nice....that it doesn't matter of your weather is a little wacky. I think the happiest time in my life is while I was living in Tulsa. If I didn't have all my family here, I would move there in a heartbeat.

Your area has been mild partly due to the ongoing La Nina pattern.

That's interesting to hear that you liked living there so much. We've never lived there, but we've always found the Okies to be friendly, too. Tulsa is a very nice city.

I liked Oklahoma, too although I was there just for a short visit, I'd go visit again. While working at VW, all the people I met from there at the dealers we worked with were very nice.

I would suppose it's been a bit milder than normal, but a random 70 degree day in January is "normal" here, so I take that with a grain of salt. This little precipitation however, is not.
