Oklahoma Spring Skies

Spring in Oklahoma is not for the faint of heart. In the Tulsa area we had eight tornadoes recently. Lots of damage but no fatalities at least.

The skies of spring are often twisting and turning and giving off that strange green glow that signifies that nothing good is in store.

It makes for interesting photo opportunities though.

Plus the wind blows harder. The wind always blows in Oklahoma but the spring winds are fearsome. Makes for hard bicycle riding when you are going against them. I’ve learned not to fight going into wind. I just gear down and go slower. It’s not a contest. When I turn around and go with the wind I fly with the wind.

    March is a wild month! I know there has been some tornadoes in Oklahoma this past week, and the green sky is often a forewarning of such bad weather!
    We have high wind warnings and wildfire Red Flag warnings for the next two days along the Colorado Front Range. Stay safe!

    Tornados don’t even play fair — at least hurricanes give us more warning! When not storming though, your skies are beautiful. Todays here of course and the one last week on the SW page were beautiful. — The oil guy’s OK too but last weeks sky was fabulous.

    Beautiful photos Yogi. I always think of Oklahoma whenever I hear about tornadoes. When I was a kid growing up in the far north a tornado was a thing I heard a lot about and when it was on the news it always seemed to be in Oklahoma. I’m glad you and your family are safe.
