Oklahoma City, Okla. – A stretch of classic fall weather is unfolding across Oklahoma, bringing sunny skies, crisp mornings, and warm afternoons into the weekend. Travelers on I-35 and I-40 can expect smooth conditions with little weather disruption, though drivers should stay alert for early morning fog patches in low-lying areas.

According to the National Weather Service in Norman, high pressure will keep Oklahoma dry through Sunday, with highs reaching 84 to 87 degrees. Nights dip into the low 60s, offering cooler relief. Winds remain light, shifting from the north today before turning south by Friday, which will help temperatures climb into the upper 80s for the weekend.

Oklahoma City, Norman, and Edmond will enjoy bright afternoons ideal for outdoor events, football games, and travel. Tulsa and Lawton see similar conditions, with Saturday likely the warmest day of the stretch. With warm days and cool nights, residents are encouraged to plan hydration and layered clothing for outdoor activities.

Looking ahead, the first days of October hint at subtle changes. By Wednesday, highs fall slightly into the mid-80s as moisture edges back toward central Oklahoma. While no rain is forecast immediately, forecasters note cooler air building to the north could reach the state late next week, offering the first early glimpse of true fall chill.

Sunny skies dominate this weekend, but Oklahomans should keep an eye on shifting winds and a possible cool front beyond Wednesday.
