Tulsa gets one more almost-summer day Thursday, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 85 before rain chances move in for Halloween weekend. The weather is quiet for now, but the forecast turns notably wetter from Friday through Saturday and more unsettled again early next week.
Thursday Stays Warm And Dry
Thursday starts mild under partly cloudy skies, then warms quickly through the afternoon. South winds will run 5 to 10 mph, with no rain expected, and temperatures fall only to around 62 Thursday night.
The National Weather Service says rain chances begin early Friday, with cloudy skies and a high near 76. Rain chances rise again Friday night, peaking at 40% to 60% overnight Friday into Saturday. Most rain through Saturday should be light, with a few hundredths to a quarter-inch expected in many spots.
Halloween May Need An Umbrella
Saturday brings a 50% chance of showers, mostly cloudy skies and a high near 71. Rain chances should steadily end from west to east Saturday afternoon, so outdoor Halloween plans may want a backup location—or at least a dry bag for the candy.
Stormier Pattern Arrives Monday
Sunday offers a brief, mild pause with a high near 75 and little chance of rain during the day, but shower and thunderstorm chances return Sunday night. Monday currently carries the biggest near-term weather concern: a 70% chance of showers and thunderstorms, a high near 74, and south winds gusting up to 25 mph.
The latest outlook is more pointed about an impactful storm system early next week than Hoodline's earlier update, though the exact timing and severity remain unsettled. Rain chances stay elevated Monday night, then temperatures cool to around 70 Tuesday and into the 60s by Wednesday, with lingering shower chances Tuesday; no watches, warnings or advisories are posted for the Tulsa area in the current forecast.
