With electricity slowly returning to many Oklahoma City homes—I got mine back on Friday, after almost two weeks—I decided to take stock of both my emergency preparedness skills and my disaster...
A tree had collapsed on the side of my house, dragging down multiple black wires in its fall. With OG&E nowhere to be seen and with far more important neighborhoods in need of electricity, they...
On Monday evening, after finishing up some work in our Bricktown Digital Media Studio, I waltzed over to Fuzzy’s Tacos by Harkin’s to get my usual to-go order – two brisket and one...
As the Oklahoma summer sun continues to boil and bake our hottest of days away, when I was walking in it recently—not heel to toe, mind you—every skin-searing beam took me back to the summer of...
After a couple of weeks of hideous and historic weather, and with even more rain on the horizon, I thought it would be a good idea to recap some of the lasting moments we’ve experienced from...
If you’re anything like me – and let’s hope you’re not – this has been one “blah” of a week. I don’t know if it’s the Memorial holiday hangover, PTSD...
The apocalyptic severe weather event that struck Oklahoma yesterday kind of reminds me of the final season of Game of Thrones. They were both overhyped and they both under-delivered, but we all...
Even though the average Oklahoman is more likely to take the rumor of a Bigfoot sighting more seriously than we do a tornado warning, we all have our meteorologist we prefer to tune into for the...
We’re still in the early midst of Oklahoma’s severe weather season, and TV meteorologists are already hard at work making sure they get credit for catching the first tornado of the...
There’s been a great disturbance in the severe weather force. For the past couple of years, Lord Gary England – the Severe Weather God of Oklahoma™ – has been experimenting with the...
Happy ice-pocalypse 2019, my fellow Oklahomans! By now you are probably well aware that Oklahoma is in the middle of a winter storm warning and likely subsequent milk and bread shortage. While many...
Although it’s been bad news for some Internet publishers, one positive thing about the changes Facebook made to its all-powerful newsfeed algorithm in 2018 is that we get less apocalyptic...
On Wednesday morning, Lucas caused a local ruckus when he almost too accurately described the Five Stages of Oklahoma Winter Weather Panic that accompany our often underwhelming, and usually...
Oklahoma winters are, to me at least, always so post-apocalyptic. It doesn’t help matters that, around this time, the local news channels begin their yearly holiday of frightening the populace with...
Who’s ready for another edition of “As The Doppler Turns?” Earlier this year, while I complained about Mike Morgan blocking TLO on Twitter, Emily Sutton jumped in with a strange revelation –...
Thanks to a three-month old baby, a persistent iPhone emergency alert, and a border collie named Simon that shakes like a an old Dr. Katz cartoon whenever thunder strikes, it’s safe to say I...
One of the great ironies of Trump’s presidency is that most of his policies do not help the lower-income, poorly educated, probably racist supporters who helped elect him president and flocked...
Earlier this week, the attention hungry OKC weather media began to collectively tease a “possible” winter weather event that may or may not hit around the Christmas holiday. Yep, that’s...
This week, apparently Oklahoma City Public Schools have opened their impoverished and failing doors to the Metro’s insufferable lot of tots, tweens and teens for another school year of uncertainty...
Back in 2015, KOCO Channel 5 Chief Meteorologist Damon Lane wrote a blog post complaining about the fake hail photo epidemic sweeping social media. I guess he’s bombarded with fake pics...
One of the cool things about being the owner of The Lost Ogle is that I’ve become the world’s foremost expert on weather dongs – those rorschach-inspired images of dicks and dildos that form...
The Severe Weather Coverage season blew into the Metro viewing area last night with the first preseason storm outbreak of 2017. Although the storms thankfully didn’t pack that much of a punch...
Back in 2015, KFOR Chief Meteorologist Mike Morgan sent us an email requesting that we replace him in the Ogle Madness VIII field with his wife, former rodeo beauty queen beer model, Marla Morgan...
It’s hard to believe, but severe weather season is only a couple of months away. I don’t know if the weather is going to be deadly or dangerous, but either way, expect our local TV news media to...
One thing I forgot to mention in yesterday’s winter weather fail post is there appears to be a drift / dry slot developing between Lord Gary England and his former apprentice turned usurper David...
