This Weekend in Tulsa: Hot, humid and windy
Rain gear won’t be necessary this weekend. The ridge of high pressure will keep the storm track away from Oklahoma. Morning lows will stay in the mid to upper 70s with afternoon highs leveling off in the lower 90s. South winds will continue at 15 to 30 mph. A slight drop in dew points may bring a modest decrease in heat index values, but they’ll still range from the upper 90s to lower 100s. Heat stress remains a concern.
Sunday Brunch Forecast:
Green country stays dry all day Sunday, with sunny skies and high temperatures in the low 90s. The only things to worry about are heat index values near 100 and southerly wind gusts up to 30mph possible, especially during the first half of the day. If you plan on spending time outdoors near lunchtime, temperatures will already be in the upper 80s.
The Morning Weather Podcast:
The daily morning weather podcast briefing will remain on hold indefinitely due to ongoing internal workflow issues.
We're working to resolve these challenges as soon as possible and appreciate your patience. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to be back soon. Thank you for your understanding.
