[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3747617, member: 7900"] That could be good for you. Time was, SE Oklahoma had a reputation among law enforcement folks that we knew to be very strong in illegal marijuana growing. Otherwise, it is pretty forested from what I have seen. Central OK has both trees and open country while NW OK is pretty much treeless and windy. With regards to the central OK area, within the last 11 years, I've personally seen temps as high as 115 degrees (2011) and as low as 016 degrees (2020/2021?) while living in our RV. These are extremes, but we definitely don't fit into the category of 50 degrees winter lows to 90 degrees summer highs. In addition, our ice storms can be pretty extreme. (See pics below.) October of 2020, an ice storm came in and some trees were hurt bad because there were still leaves on the trees and the ice collected on all the extra that the leaves provided. The tree to the right was covering over the top and front of our 38 1/2-foot fifth wheel, and the tree behind the red Expedition was covering the Ford F450 we use to pull the RV.
