Tulsa, OK — Patchy dense fog will affect drivers in eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas this morning. Visibility may drop below a quarter mile, especially on highways like I-49 near Fayetteville. Commuters should reduce speed, use low-beam headlights, and allow extra travel time.
According to the National Weather Service, the fog is expected to lift by 9 a.m. this morning. However, throughout the rest of the week, high winds are forecast, with gusts potentially reaching 25 mph by Tuesday afternoon, increasing the fire risk across the region. Residents along the I-44 corridor should stay alert, particularly Tuesday when the fire danger peaks due to lower humidity and dry conditions.
Later in the week, temperatures will climb into the 90s, with sunny conditions persisting through Friday. Locals are advised to prepare for dry weather, secure loose outdoor items, and avoid outdoor burning. Keep monitoring local weather updates to stay safe.
