Damaging winds forecast for Wednesday in Oklahoma

 

If the weather forecasters are accurate, Wednesday will not be the day to be working high atop an oil drilling rig or in a power line bucket.

Winds up to 70 mph are in the forecast from the National Weather Service and driving a big-rig across I-40 in western Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle could be potentially dangerous.

Temperatures will be in the 70s across much of Oklahoma.
