Tulsa, OK – Clear skies and mild October warmth are returning to Oklahoma this week, offering ideal conditions for fall outings and Halloween prep. After a foggy start in parts of northwest Arkansas Tuesday morning, sunshine will dominate through the week with only minor temperature swings.
According to the National Weather Service in Tulsa, no major storms are expected through Monday, October 13. However, strong southerly winds on Sunday may raise fire weather concerns, especially across eastern Oklahoma. Residents planning yard cleanups or bonfires should stay alert for possible fire weather advisories later in the week.
Tuesday will be partly sunny with a high near 76°F. Wednesday and Thursday will stay mostly sunny, with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s. By Friday, temperatures will climb toward 86°F under clear skies — great for outdoor festivals and pumpkin patch visits.
Looking ahead to Sunday, gusty south winds up to 25 mph will combine with low humidity, creating elevated fire risk. While no rain is expected, residents are urged to secure lightweight outdoor decorations and avoid open burning.
This stable stretch of weather offers picture-perfect fall days for leaf viewing and local events across Tulsa County and eastern Oklahoma.
