Prior to tonight, the most recent time that the Knicks led in an NBA Finals was after they had taken a 3-2 lead over Houston in the 1994 Finals.
The same night as the O.J. Simpson chase
One of the most surreal, dramatic scenes in live broadcast television history
June 17, 1994
@TheCalvinCooli1 I like his property tax elimination proposal for vets and seniors, but I think every Oklahoman should get some form of property tax relief (not outright elimination, but perhaps lower rates for the broader public). DeSantis’ new proposal is an idea — first $250k of value exempt.
@MatthewCappucci The striations in this hailstone make it look like one of those decorative pie pumpkins 🎃 From Le Flore County in far eastern Oklahoma earlier this evening.
Oklahomaies and western Arkansas gang – SATURDAY, APRIL 25 looks like a classic BIG HAIL day. We'll have scattered hail-producing rotating supercells form east of I-35 around 3 p.m., and impact much of eastern Oklahoma and far western Arkansas.
It's a good day to park your vehicle beneath a carport or garage or in a sheltered location.
The meanest supercells could produce 3-4 inch diameter hail. That's bigger than baseballs and, in some cases, approaching softball size.
We have wind dynamics supportive of rotating storms, and maybe a couple tornadoes. Admittedly the low-level winds are a bit weak, which negates a greater tornado threat. The greatest spin is at the mid-levels, which is PERFECT for big hail.
Moreover, we have dry air at the mid levels. That means less moisture falls out of the cloud as rain, and instead we have more tiny supercooled water droplets to stick onto growing hailstones and make them even bigger.
Temperatures get chilly FAST with height too. We call those "steep lapse rates." As hailstones are lofted by thunderstorm updrafts, they encounter incredibly cold air.
@McFranchisee Diet Coke out of the computerized machines doesn’t have near the taste of the traditional fountain machines. The traditional machines taste slightly sweeter and much better.
