You probably noticed it on your drive to or from work. The sun seems to be just the right angle to make it almost impossible to see. “This time of year right around the fall change of seasons the sun lines up right on the east-west roadways “ Steve Piltz, Meteorologist in charge at the National Weather Service in Tulsa told KRMG news.

It's a seasonal issue, one that can’t be avoided “You're looking straight down the road straight into the sun and there's just no chance for shade” Piltz acknowledged. And, it can be dangerous “it gets pretty blinding if you're driving at the right time of day and you don't have sunglasses to avoid that glare” he pointed out.

Listen here as Stave explains the dangers.

Piltz told KRMG News if you go to work later in the day and come home later at night it's not an issue.  However, if you're out anytime around sunrise or sunset you could have a problem. “Around 45 minutes to an hour within sunrise and sunset that's going to be the time when the glare is going to be right in your face" Steve noted.

Piltz is most concerned about the dangers of not being able to see "You could be blinded if you look straight into it and lose your orientation while you're driving for a few seconds and that's not good"

 Steve told KRMG of avoiding it is pretty simple. Use your hand to block the sun or wear sunglasses but sometimes that doesn't even help.

 The good news. It's a seasonal issue and it will change with next few days "five to six days, maybe a week and the sun will continue its path toward the south and it won't be as bad" Steve assured us.

 So for the next week or so just be careful, take your sunglasses and maybe try to avoid those peak times. It's all part of fall in Oklahoma.
