"There's a bright golden haze on the meadow,
There's a bright golden haze on the meadow,
The corn is as high as an elephant's eye
An' it looks like it's climbin' clear up to the sky…."
(Chorus…ALL SING OUT LOUD….come on you know the song!)
"OOOOOhhhhh…….. what a beautiful morning!"
Mother Nature is serving up some "chilled air" for breakfast... and
I like it so much, I think I scared some of the folks at my local QT this morning. When I bounced into the store around 2:00am ( early, huh?), to get my daily dose of Diet Coke, I greeted everyone inside and went on and on and on about how "nice" it was outside. Looking back, I know it was a little jarring for all 5 people in the store. But I couldn't help it… I was so excited.
I guess you could say after days of torrential flooding rains, clouds, and sticky, muggy air before that, this morning's weather is a breath of fresh air.
Makes sense, too, because it is, literally.
We dipped to 60 in Tulsa, Wagoner and Tahlequah this morning.
54 in Bartlesville.
53 in Vinita.
52 in Copan.
51 in Pawhuska.
47 in Slapout.
39 in Beaver.
This is our first late summer shot of Canadian air. The leading edge surged in around dinner time last night. We're getting a nibble this morning, and we'll have an even better taste tomorrow morning (translation: it'll be cooler tomorrow morning) with mainly clear skies overnight. ( Might it be time to trade the iced coffee for the hot stuff?)
Sunshine is in the forecast today. Our afternoons will start to warm a little the next few days, then cool back down this weekend.
Fall officially arrives the morning of Sunday, September 23rd. I do believe we'll see 90s before then, so if you're holding onto summer still, not to worry it's not gone just yet. If you're looking ahead to fall, enjoy today's taste test.
And that brings me back to our chorus (will you sing with me now?) from our State's musical... .
"Oh what a beautiful morning!
Oh what a beautiful day!
I've got a wonderful feeeeeeelllllllliiiiinnnnnng…. Everything's going my way".
Hope it does.
Have a great day!
