Monday morning comin’ down—temperatures too

 

Oklahoma climatologist Gary McManus was spot on in his prediction of when the arctic front would roar into Oklahoma this weekend.
“Sometime about Friday evening or so, the first arctic front is gonna come blasting through the state with strong winds and a sudden 20-30 degree drop in temperatures. Then we’ll get a good reinforcing shot of air later in the weekend until nearly the entire country is below freezing right around 6am Monday morning,” he wrote in his last Mesonet update.
“If you’re out in it, for whatever reason…maybe you are herding rabbits, or changing the blinker fluid in your car…obviously the wind chills are gonna be down in ZERO territory and should be taken seriously.”
