The Seasons in Oklahoma (Post #525) 2/17/2015

I love Oklahoma weather.

The weather in Oklahoma is unique. Southern California has their two seasons, dry season and sunny season. Florida has their dry season and wet season. Oklahoma has all four seasons.

We have Spring aka Tornado Season. You’ve seen my posts, this season keeps most of the weaker of our species away.

Summer, also known as what passes as Sub-Saharan Africa. Its a mystery to me why we don’t have more lions wandering around.

Winter, where we have ice storms, thundersnow, and wind that cuts through you like a knife. You haven’t lived until you’ve sat through a late November football game in Oklahoma. You can well imagine the wind chills in winter keep a fair number of people away too.

And finally, Fall, the best of our seasons.

The best thing about the weather in Oklahoma, is you can have 3 of the 4 seasons in a single week of weather. The day I shot the video above the weather was 70F and just a week earlier we had a high of 37F. For the month we had a low of 17F and a high of 79F.

Last night we had bands of ice pass through the state allowing for ice skating on the streets of Edmond, Oklahoma. We’ll be in the low 60’s by Saturday.

Stay warm out there Spring is coming, Thanks for reading and Happy Rovering.

Video Blog #3 (Post #514) 10/4/2014

Video Blog.

As I mentioned in the Okierover Video Blog #3, I recently got a Service Engine light.

I don’t see Check Engine or Service Engine lights very often. I forgot that this was not the CHECK ENGINE light. So I rambled on a bit on the video. Here’s how to reset the SERVICE ENGINE light on a Range Rover Classic.

Find the SERVICE Module under the passenger seat. Just remove frustration, move the seat all the way forward and lift it up too.

Turn the ignition on. With a paper clip or other metal bar pierce the paper sticker on the top (it has probably already been pierced) and insert the rod. You will feel the pins and if you look at the instrument cluster the SERVICE ENGINE light will go off when you have satisfied the reset.

Now if I could only find something to short out to fix the ABS / Traction Control problem…oh well.

Thanks for reading/watching and Happy Rovering.

Video Blog #1, Humor me, wave why don’t ya? (Post #500) 6/13/2014

This is my first attempt at a video blog. My friend Walt in PA video blogs all the time. I think his readers like it.

We shall see if my readers like it.

Caveats /kavēˌät,ˈkäv-/,

  • This video will not change your life.
  • This video was filmed in a controlled environment by a professional Land Rover Driver. (Don’t try this at home kids.)
  • The thoughts within are random, and mine, and hopefully entertaining. (I will not refund the four minutes you are sure to waste watching it.)
  • It was awesome.
  • The city was “The Village”.

Thanks for watching and Happy Rovering.
