TULSA, Okla. — Gusty south winds will be around today with a few gusts 35 to 40 mph. Highs temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 70s. Late this afternoon into tonight we have a slight chance for an isolated storm or two with a wind and hail threat. Most of us stay dry. The chance is greatest SE Kansas and far NE Oklahoma. Lows will stay in the mid/upper 50s Wednesday morning.

Wednesday will be a near repeat of Tuesday with highs near 80° and a continued gusty south breeze and slight storm chances.

A cold front will make a push into Green Country on Thursday increasing our chances of showers and storms. As of now, we will keep chances at about 30-40% for Tulsa, but chances are 70-90% for those of you south and east. A few strong to severe storms with a damaging wind and hail threat will also be possible along with the potential for locally heavy rain, which we need.

Much cooler air will move in Friday and into St. Patrick's Day weekend with highs holding in the upper 50s to low 60s at best. Jackets will be needed for any St. Patrick's Day festivities. Rain chances look low, but there will be a slight chance of showers south of I-40 Friday and Sunday.

The start of Monday morning looks chilly with temperatures dropping in the 30s as the last days of winter are still here.
