Today, Oklahoma City started the day under clear skies, and by afternoon the metro will be flirting with the upper 60s to near 70°F, a rare February excuse for short sleeves. North-northwest winds will blow steadily around 8–13 mph, with gusts that could reach about 20 mph by midafternoon, so it may feel a bit brisker than the numbers suggest.
Afternoon Winds Pick Up
North-northwest winds will strengthen through mid-morning and into the afternoon, with gusts up to around 20 mph across the city, enough to jostle patio umbrellas and keep cyclists on alert along exposed stretches. Temperatures are expected to top out near 68–70°F, then drop to about 36°F overnight as the breeze turns to the northeast. No watches or warnings are in effect at this time, according to the National Weather Service.
Weekend And Week Ahead
Saturday stays mostly sunny with a high near 64°F, and Sunday rebounds into the 70s with a forecast high around 74°F. Monday looks warmer still, with highs near 76°F, before a chance of rain moves in Monday night into Tuesday. Rain chances remain modest, roughly 20–30 percent. An earlier forecast from Hoodline highlighted the same gradual warmup.
Plan Ahead
The warm, dry stretch should cooperate for errands, dog walks, and park time, although the gusty afternoons might tug at lightweight outdoor gear and make bike rides feel cooler than the forecast highs. If you are heading out after sunset, keep a light jacket handy and give the latest forecast a quick check before you leave the house.
