OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. – A few scattered fall thunderstorms are clipping central Oklahoma early this morning, but the soggy start will give way to bright, warm skies by Sunday. The quick transition marks the beginning of an extended stretch of mild, sunny weather — perfect for outdoor events and fall decorating across the metro. Drivers along I-35 should remain alert for slick spots through midday as the last showers move east.
According to the National Weather Service in Norman, showers will taper by early afternoon, followed by gradual clearing and cooler air Saturday night. Sunday looks calm and crisp with highs near 71°F under full sunshine, while Monday will feel more like late summer with highs soaring to around 85°F. Southerly winds will return, but no hazardous weather is expected into midweek.
Residents planning pumpkin patch trips, football games, or outdoor cleanup can count on favorable conditions through Wednesday. However, rising afternoon temperatures could dry out lawns and gardens quickly, so light watering may help preserve fall color. Fire danger remains low but may increase slightly if breezy conditions persist.
By midweek, Oklahoma City will settle into a pleasant fall rhythm — cool mornings, sunny afternoons, and clear evenings ideal for early Halloween decorating or evening walks. No cold snaps or major fronts are expected until late next week.
