Oklahoma City is waking up to clear skies and temperatures in the upper 40s Monday morning, but the week ahead will feel more like a gentle return to summer than a deep dive into fall. Sunshine will push the afternoon high to around 70 degrees, with no rain expected and only a mild south wind for most of the day.
The National Weather Service office in Norman forecasts scattered clouds across the area Monday. Monday night should stay mostly clear, with temperatures falling to about 50 degrees.
A Warm Run Through Thursday
Tuesday will be mostly sunny with a high near 72, followed by a sunny Wednesday topping out around 76 degrees. Thursday looks warmer still, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 78.
Overnight lows will remain fairly mild, ranging from the mid-50s Tuesday night to the upper 50s Wednesday night. That means comfortable mornings for commuters, runners and anyone who has been waiting for the weather to stop changing its mind every few hours.
Rain Chances Hold Off Until The Weekend
Dry weather is expected to dominate Oklahoma City through Friday, when another mostly sunny day reaches about 78 degrees. A low precipitation chance is in the forecast for next weekend.
Sunday is expected to be mostly sunny, with a high near 82. No watches or warnings are in effect, so the forecast favors outdoor plans throughout the week, with only a small chance of a weekend rain interruption.
