Hello. "Oklahoma rain" is slang for a sandstorm or dust storm. sources: "Oklahoma rain (sandstorm)" From: Words from the Western Frontier, hosted by creighton.edu http://puffin.creighton.edu/fapa/aikin/Web-files/WEST/words_from_the_western_frontier.htm "Oklahoma rain - Sandstorm" From: ePodunk.com: Americanisms http://www.epodunk.com/americanisms.html "Oklahoma rain = a dust storm" From: Page 229, "The Cowboy Life: A Saddlebag Guide for Dudes, Tenderfeet, and Cow Punchers Everywhere" Read using the Search inside feature at Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0671866826/ ---------- Thus, a "fistful of Oklahoma rain" would be a handful of sand. search strategy: "oklahoma rain", slang "oklahoma rain", sandstorm amazon.com: "oklahoma rain" I hope this helps. |
