No Tornadoes Reported Anywhere Across US in March (so far)...you feelin' the SDS yet???

Sorry I wasn't clear. My only point was to make it clear that the ridge was causing the drought, not the reverse. I don't know for sure what is driving the long term pattern--I doubt anyone knows for sure.
 
Well, based on reports in last few minutes, we've got Benton, AR & now OK too:

...A TORNADO WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR NORTHERN TULSA...EXTREME
EASTERN PAWNEE...SOUTHEASTERN OSAGE AND EXTREME NORTH CENTRAL CREEK
COUNTIES UNTIL 600 PM CDT...

AT 526 PM CDT...A CONFIRMED EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TORNADO WAS LOCATED

THIS IS A PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

I see "eventually" has occurred. At least 1 dead, 2 injured, 30,000 without power. :( Not a good way to start. http://www.kake.com/home/headlines/Tornado-touches-down-near-Oklahoma-City-297596281.html
 
STexan / Jeff H: I can promise you the article you reference is in no way politically driven. $0 of research money was used during any phase of the project referenced. I was not on a RA during the creation or analysis of the data described in the initial referenced article on climate change and severe weather. I have little/no skin in the game. I am simply reporting what I found from my high-resolution downscaled simulations.
