Oklahoma Storm Timeline

Highs on Saturday will reach the upper 60s to lower 70s, with cloudy skies and southeast winds of 10 to 20 mph.

The upper airflow consists of a deep trough over the western United States and a mid-high ridge of high pressure centered in the southeast, creating a favorable southwesterly airflow over the southern and central Plains.

This persistent southerly flow will bring significant amounts of moisture, paving the way for showers and storms, including the possibility of heavy rainfall.

The main upper trough is expected to remain in the area until late Monday night or early Tuesday morning, with several disturbances around the base of the trough beginning to impact the state starting this afternoon through the weekend.

Timing these disruptions can be difficult, but each wave increases the chance of showers and storms.

The first wave is expected later this afternoon and evening and will continue until early Sunday morning.

We may see a brief lull on Sunday before more storms develop in the afternoon and evening, potentially bringing heavy rain and severe weather.

Thunderstorms are likely Monday morning, followed by a final round of storms in the afternoon.

As the main upper air trough blows out to our northeast late Monday night and early Tuesday morning, dry air will wrap around the system, bringing mostly pleasant and dry election weather with morning lows in the 50s and daytime highs in the mid 50s sixty.

A consensus of the data suggests another storm system could approach the area late next week, but the timing could change. Low chances of showers and storms remain in the forecast from late next week to early next weekend.
