TULSA, OKLA — Spotty showers and some thunder will remain possible overnight into Friday morning with steady temps in the low 60s.
A slow warming trend is expected heading into the weekend, with highs climbing back into the upper 70s and low 80s Friday and Saturday.
A few isolated storms will be possible Friday afternoon, but many of us will enjoy some dry weather with a cloud and sun mixed sky. Another disturbance moves into the area late Friday night into Saturday, and forecast models remain uncertain about how widespread or intense this next round of rain will become, but a few spotty showers and storms appear likely with little threat of severe weather.
Yet another weather disturbance may arrive late Saturday or Sunday, bringing additional chances for a few showers and storms. Severe weather still appears unlikely, but repeated rounds of rain could worsen flooding concerns and cause rivers and streams to rise.
By Memorial Day, a large upper-level low pressure system is expected to settle south of the area over Texas. This setup will continue pulling moisture into the area, keeping daily chances for showers and thunderstorms in the forecast.
Rain coverage may become more isolated at times for the holiday, especially outside of southeastern Oklahoma. Temperatures are expected to return closer to normal by early next week.
We're watching for another upper-level system by the middle of next week. If this pattern develops, additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms — along with renewed flooding concerns — could continue through midweek. However, widespread severe weather still does not appear to be the primary threat at this time.
