Before I forget, I wanted to mention the magnificent gust front that passed across Oklahoma in the early morning hours of Sunday. I was watching the Weather Channel late on Saturday night, and their radar images were clearly showing a secondary line of thunderstorms approaching Tulsa that were generated from the passage of gust front that was formed as thunderstorms collapsed just west of Oklahoma City. This gust front raced eastwards faster than the original line of thunderstorms, bearing a new crop of thunderstorms that crossed northern Arkansas over the next few hours.
Last summer, every day, I watched gust fronts echoing back and forth from the thunderstorms in the vicinity of Albuquerque, NM, but those were puny compared to this amazing gust front!
When it comes to weather, the rest of the world can't hold a candle to what happens every day on the Great Plains!
