Oklahoma City, OK – A gray, damp morning greeted Oklahoma travelers today as light rain and patchy fog lingered across much of central Oklahoma. Drivers heading along I-35 and I-40 should plan for slower traffic through midmorning as visibility dips in pockets of thicker fog. Pavement remains wet in several metro areas, adding to the early travel delays.
According to the National Weather Service in Norman, a few stray showers could develop through midday before skies begin to lift. Temperatures will reach the mid-60s, keeping conditions mild but humid. By Tuesday, a fresh north breeze will usher in drier, cooler air—setting up several days of near-perfect travel weather through Thanksgiving.
Sunshine returns fully by Wednesday with highs near 60°F, followed by a crisp but bright Thanksgiving Day. Highs will top out in the mid-50s with light winds—ideal for both road trips and outdoor gatherings. For Black Friday shoppers, the early chill near 40°F will warm quickly under clear skies, creating an easy travel day statewide.
While Oklahoma avoids any major winter systems this week, long-range models hint at a colder push by the end of the month—possibly the state’s first “winter tease.” Travelers should still check for updates before heading home this weekend.
5-Day Outlook:
- Tuesday: Mostly clear, 61°F.
- Wednesday: Sunny, 60°F.
- Thanksgiving Day: Sunny, 56°F.
- Friday: Cloudy, 63°F.
- Saturday–Sunday: Spotty rain possible, mid-60s.
