"Rain drops keep falling on my head..." words from a song of the past written by Hal David and Burt Backarach and originally sang by B. J. Thomas. Can we even hear this song in our heads, let alone envision it to even happen any time soon. The thought of singing and playing in the rain, seems unfathomable this blistering hot summer.
Once again, we are having another record breaking melt down and heat wave of temperatures reaching well over 110 degrees this week.
At USAO I learned that the topic of our weather, is one of the major questions that every student, teacher and person on campus is asking about. "When will this heat wave change?" "When In God's creation will Chickasha, Oklahoma get some relief from this heat and get some rain?"
So, I went to the experts. I called Gary England's office at News Channel 9 today, and I asked the million dollar question, "When and what's the possibility of Chickasha, Oklahoma being blessed with a change of weather with rain in the forecast?" Their answer, as of now, is next week. There should be a front coming in on Wednesday, August 10 and Thursday, August 11, 2011, with temperatures in the upper 90's and a 20 percent change of rain. Since weather patterns can only be predicted one to three months in advance, they say it's going to be warmer and dryer than normal for months to come.
This summer of 2011 will definitely be remembered as one of the most melting and blistering hot summer school experiences for me and many others.
