TULSA, OKLA — A cold front has moved into northeastern Oklahoma and will continue steadily southeastward, clearing the area by late morning.
As the front moves through, isolated showers are possible along the boundary. Rainfall amounts will remain light.
Behind the front, drier weather will return Tuesday afternoon. However, the break will be short-lived. A fast-moving disturbance embedded in strong north-northwest flow aloft will push another surge of cooler air into the region on Wednesday.
This reinforcing cold shot will bring increased cloud cover and mark the coldest temperatures of the forecast period.
Highs today near seasonal in the upper 40s and lower 50s with more 40 degree readings likely tomorrow afternoon.
Forecast guidance generally agrees on a narrow band of light precipitation developing late Tuesday night into Wednesday, passing near or just west of the Highway 75 corridor.
A brief rain and snow mix will be possible, but any snowfall accumulation is expected to be minimal to none, with no impacts anticipated.
Conditions improve quickly heading into Thursday as surface high pressure shifts southeast of the region.
Gusty southwesterly winds will develop, ushering in warmer air and a return to above-normal temperatures. This stretch of dry and mild weather is expected to continue through next weekend.
Looking ahead, low rain chances may return to the forecast by early next week, but no significant weather impacts are expected at this time.
