Oklahoma – A gray, humid start spreads across central counties this morning as low clouds skim rooftops, pavement glistens, and a steady south breeze reminds travelers that Thanksgiving week kicks off right now. Drivers heading toward I-35 and I-40 feel the slick roads first, so residents should keep wipers ready, charge phones, and plan flexible travel windows.
According to the National Weather Service Norman office, scattered showers continue today as warm air holds across central Oklahoma. Humidity stays high, and clouds thicken through the afternoon. Travel may slow at times near Moore, Norman, and South OKC where heavier clusters briefly reduce visibility. Rainfall remains light but persistent enough to delay early holiday trips.
According to meteorologists, a stronger wave pushes across the region Sunday and could bring a few heavier showers east of the metro. No severe threat stands out, yet thunder remains possible. Winds strengthen briefly, and drivers should watch for sudden gusts around open fields along Route 62. Air feels warm for late November, though models hint at a cooler push building early next week.
According to NWS guidance, Monday stays mild with scattered showers. To be fair, the atmosphere shows an “early winter tease” as colder air gathers to the north. A light changeover signal appears in long-range models, though any snow chance stays minimal this far south. Still, travelers heading north toward Kansas should watch for early flurry potential on Tuesday.
By Tuesday, skies brighten in Oklahoma while temperatures slip slightly. For now, the weather stays friendly for Christmas decorating, outdoor cleanup, and final Thanksgiving errands.
