Oh oh. Maybe winter-like weather isn’t all that far off in Oklahoma.
Thursday’s strong winds and lower temperatures gave us a slight taste of cooler weather.
But—–
“Don’t be shocked if we start talking about wintry precip across far NW OK as we get later into next week. Nothing too crazy showing up yet, but stay tuned because once again, it is Oklahoma weather AND it is still 2021,” cautioned Gary McManus, State Climatologist with the Oklahoma Mesonet.
“Temperatures will peak on Saturday in the 60s and 70s before they start to go downhill throughout the next week as we see more cold fronts and chances for rain. Our friends at the Amarillo NWS office show this in a graphic of the CPC outlooks for next week,” he added.
But he was also quick to add that Oklahoma still is dealing with drought despite all the recent rainfall.
