[QUOTE="Bonsman, post: 842899, member: 8504"] Today, Western Oklahoma was officially placed in the "Exceptional Drought" category. That is the worst drought category which exists. We were moderate during the fall, then severe in the winter, then extreme in the spring, and now exceptional to start the summer. It can get drier, so maybe they will need to create a new category especially for us. We are drier than at anytime since records have been kept and much drier than the dust bowl. The forecast calls for temeratures in the 105 degree range for the next seven days; and add a nice 15-25 mph south wind to the forecast. The summer heat dome is in place and it does not look good for the rest of the summer. We are a tinderbox waiting to ignite. I am ready for that rain dance; but I am afraid that a rain dance is all about the timing. [/QUOTE]
