Answer 1

Tulsa is the second-largest city in Oklahoma. As of 2005 the estimate for the city population was 382,457.[1] Tulsa is the 45th largest city in the United States and the 93rd largest city in North America. It is the county seat of Tulsa County. Tulsa’s Metropolitan Statistical Area, was estimated to have a 2005 population of 887,715 and Tulsa’s Combined Statistical Area, which includes the Bartlesville Micropolitan Area was estimated to have a 2005 population of 936,864.

Climate>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Tulsa has a temperate climate of the continental variety. As is typical for the temperate zone, Tulsa's climate varies throughout the seasons and experiences occasional extremes.

Summer temperatures of 40°C (100°F) or higher are often observed from July to early September. These are usually accompanied by high humidity, caused by warm air from the Gulf of Mexico brought in by southerly winds. Between May and September, Tulsa also experiences an "Ozone Season", caused by a combination of factors including climate and hydrocarbon emissions. During this season, Tulsa frequently issues "Ozone Alerts [5]", encouraging all parties to do their part in complying with the Clean Air Act and E.P.A. standards.

Winter temperatures, while generally mild, also occasionally experience extremes below -20°C (0°F).

The fall season is quite short, consisting of a brief period of pleasant, sunny days and cool nights.

Primarily during the spring and early summer months, the Tulsa area is often subjected to severe thunderstorms, some of which contain large hail, damaging winds and, not infrequently, tornadoes. Severe weather is not limited, though, to this season. On December 5th 1975, for example, Tulsa experienced a damaging tornado.

The spring and early summer thunderstorm pattern also provides the area with a disproportionate share of its annual rainfall, which averages around 100 cm (39 inches). Due to frequent flooding in past decades, Tulsa now has one of the most extensive flood control systems in the nation. In 2000, FEMA honored Tulsa as leading the nation in flood plain management.[10]

Answer 2

I've lived in Oklahoma for 23 years (all my life) The air here is hot & dry-We really haven't had a bad winter in a long time, but it does get pretty cold. If you have sinus & allergy problems, it's bad b/c it is so dry here. Food isn't too bad it really depends on what store you shop at. Milk is pretty much with tax alomost $3 a gallon & $2 for 1/2 gallon. Gas is pretty reasonable considering other states. Some parts it's higher in-Tulsa averages anywhere from $2.65-$2.98 a gallon depending on the week.

Answer 3

All weather in Oklahoma is by-the-minute. Here lately we've been in a drought. It has lasted for at least one year. Sure we get rain every now and again, but it is mostly dry.

I'd expect mostly hot days with a few nice ones thrown in sparingly.

As for prices on food, it depends on where you go. There are a lot of grocery stores where you can get a Shopper's card from. It works like a coupon on certain items.

Answer 4

It's one of the cheaper places to live and it's a nice clean city. The summers can get crazy hot but the winters aren't too bad. We will have a cold spell but the temperatures usually stay pretty good. The wind can make it feel really cold though. All in all though, I think it's a great place to live.

Answer 5

The weather is nice but they have alot of tornado warnings and tornadoes for real and the prices are not bad on food.

Answer 6

hot and dry, have fun
