"The more nights we get where people can't sleep, the more we sell.

We like to see at least three or four in a row." Forecasters said the persistent rain was caused by a combination of moist unstable air from the Gulf of Mexico at low levels and upper-level disturbances tracking east across the area from the southern Rockies. north to Milwaukee, where lightning knocked WITI-TV off the air for three minutes during a newscast Wednesday night.

Lightning was blamed for a fire, and winds downed trees, pushed over a tobacco barn and damaged a mobile home.

Roads throughout central Oklahoma were flooded, and rush-hour traffic got snarled when the interchange where the state's two major interstates meet in downtown Oklahoma City was closed by erosion. "There was nothing underneath the pavement and they're working now trying to fill it back in," said Jim Sim, spokesman for Oklahoma's Department of Transportation. He said repairmen expected to have the junction of 1-35 and 1-40 ready for traffic Thursday afternoon.
