Tulsa, OK – A powerful Arctic blast will grip Oklahoma next week, bringing subzero wind chills, dangerous cold, and accumulating snow. Residents should prepare for hazardous travel and extreme temperatures.

According to the National Weather Service, a winter storm is expected to develop late Monday, with snow likely through Tuesday. Highs will struggle to reach the 20s, while wind chills could drop below zero. Gusty winds up to 30 mph will make conditions even more dangerous.

Sunday will be sunny but cold, with a high near 33°F. By Monday night, snow showers will increase, creating slick roads. Tuesday’s high will only reach 24°F, with 90% snow chances. Bitter cold lingers through midweek, with highs struggling to climb above the teens.

Drivers should check road conditions before traveling, as accumulating snow could make highways treacherous. Emergency officials urge residents to prepare for power outages and extreme wind chills.

Expect the Arctic chill to last through Thursday, with dangerously low temperatures persisting. Warmer conditions won’t return until late next week. Stay updated with local forecasts and take precautions against frostbite and hypothermia.
