TULSA, Okla — A record warm start to the week! Today’s record high of 81F (2009) is in jeopardy as highs will climb into the low/mid 80s this afternoon with mostly sunny skies! Lows tonight will stay quite mild, with some spots staying in the 60s!

Be advised a FIRE WEATHER WATCH is in effect for Tuesday with more record warmth, dry conditions, and strong west to southwest winds in the forecast. No outdoor burning Tuesday. Temperatures will climb into the low/mid 80s once again.

A cold front will sweep through Tuesday evening with a gusty north breeze and falling temps. Any chance for a shower or storm in eastern Oklahoma looks slim at this time and most of us will remain dry.

Behind the front expect a much cooler and blustery Wednesday! North winds will gust near 30 mph with highs struggling in the upper 40s. Grab the jackets! The cool to chilly weather stays with us on Thursday with a chance of a few light showers by afternoon.

We’ll clear out Friday with another quick warming trend Friday and into the weekend. We’ll go from mid 60s Friday afternoon to well into the 70s for Saturday and Sunday.
