Oklahoma City woke up to mostly clear skies and a cool start on Sunday, May 24, 2026, with dawn temperatures hovering near 59°F at Will Rogers World Airport (KOKC). Patchy fog is expected to hang around before 10 a.m. local time, then clear out for a sunny afternoon with a high near 84°F and light east winds.
Foggy Morning, Sunny Afternoon
Low clouds and patchy to locally dense fog are likely across river valleys and low-lying neighborhoods through mid-morning, which could mean slower drives and quick drops in visibility. By mid-afternoon, temperatures should climb into the low 80s while winds remain light, around 1 to 6 mph out of the east, according to the National Weather Service office in Norman.
Memorial Day Outlook
Memorial Day on Monday, May 25, 2026, is shaping up warmer and bright, with highs near 86°F and only a stray shower chance for far southern counties. Outdoor plans look largely good to go, but it will feel more like early summer by afternoon, so having water and sunscreen handy for parades, cookouts, and backyard hangouts will be a smart move.

Storm Chances Later This Week
Rain and thunderstorm chances ramp up Tuesday night into Wednesday. Probabilities rise to around 40% Tuesday night, then climb to better than 60% for showers and storms on Wednesday, especially across southern and central Oklahoma. A few storms could become strong to severe, with gusty straight-line winds and small hail as the main concerns, so it will be worth keeping an eye on updates if you have midweek plans. No watches or warnings are in effect for the metro this morning, but that could change as the system moves closer.
