Oklahoma, USA has undergone its coolest summer since records began...
therefore we are subject to global cooling.

Therefore Oklahoma is subject to local cooling, not global cooling.
AIUI global warming doesn't mean that everywhere will get (or has got)
warmer but that the average temperature will rise.

Oklahoma sits on a knife-edge. Depending on the exact combination of
factors they get weather that's either inherited from Canada, or the
Gulf. The temperature can change by 40 degrees in a day, and they've had
record highs and record lows on the same day. Quite a small changes in
the underlying factors are quite capable of altering its climate
permanently.
