Tulsa, Oklahoma – Sunshine and mild breezes will take over Tulsa this Sunday, but rising temperatures and stronger winds could challenge comfort levels by midweek.

According to the National Weather Service in Tulsa, Sunday will bring mostly sunny skies and a high near 77°F. A steady northeast breeze of 5 to 10 mph will ease outdoor activities. However, winds shift south Sunday night, becoming more noticeable on Monday night with gusts up to 20 mph expected across Tulsa County and along US-64 and US-75 corridors.

By Tuesday and Wednesday, highs will climb significantly — reaching 83°F on Tuesday and peaking near 90°F Wednesday. That heat arrives with sustained southwest winds of 10 to 15 mph and gusts topping 20 mph, increasing fire danger and stressing outdoor workers.

Drivers, especially those commuting along I-44 and US-75, should prepare for changing crosswinds, particularly late Monday into Tuesday. Stay hydrated, wear sunscreen, and limit peak-hour outdoor exposure by Wednesday.

The extended forecast offers mostly dry skies, with just a 20 percent chance of showers returning Friday. Overnight lows will stay mild, ranging from the low 50s Sunday night to the low 60s by midweek.

This stretch marks a definitive shift into summer-like warmth. NWS will monitor fire danger risks and any new advisories as the week unfolds.
