As they say "Missouri blows, but Oklahoma sucks". I'm just repeating what I've heard
Good grief it's hot

We had triple digit digits only once this summer so far, unlike last year. Mostly nineties. We don't get the severe "air you can wear" here in MN very often, but it creeps in a little sometimes and we whine about it a bit, then we have a big cool storm with baseball sized hail straight line winds, maybe a little twister. Then the hissy fit is over and the sun comes out like nothing happened. We complain far too much about it IMO. I do feel for you guys. I used to spend summers in San Antonio (my bro is still there), Anyplace south of here is mighty tired of the hot wet blanket already.

A nasty rumor. Missouri and Oklahoma are both great. Arkansas sucks. And Jackson Mississippi sucks.

I’ll take Ark over OK any day…
Mosquitos there are a hunting sport like clay pigeons at range day.

Not me. And I've spent considerable time in both. Though I will admit that not ALL of Arkansas sucks. The northern part is very much like southern Missouri. And some of Oklahoma does suck. Tulsa, OKC for sure. I spend a lot of time in Tallequah and Muskogee.

Went to school in OK and flew the whole state. Drove it also.
People in both are the same
ARK countryside is way better than OK ..

Can we at least agree that Nebraska sucks ?
And Texarkana. Both sides.

I should have said southern Arkansas sucks. The rest of the state is beautiful. And driving south to north through Arkansas with a rented truck and a 32' enclosed trailer 13' tall during all that roadwork, that really sucked.
And did I mention Texarkana ? Someone should turn Texarkana into a corn field.
I'm a native Texan, just living here for a spell.

Being anywhere in Commiefornia is horrible regardless of the temperature.
That’s like a fall day in AZ. Lol

i really do remember all the times i'd be down there on I-40, going thru Kingman, AZ, and stopping at the Petro truck stop.
i'd park a distance from the building, to force me to walk to get some exercise to my legs.
this one time, i was like slipping as i walked, and i looked down to see if i was walking on truck oil, or maybe even grease.
but nope, i was wearing those cheap work boots that had the white soles, i think like a crepe material?
and the soles were not exactly melting, but maybe unable to handle that 115+ heat beating down on that blacktop..??
