Enjoy this week, cause we trend much colder the week after and increasing chances of precip as well. Tuesday morning, depending on where a front is situated, some light freezing drizzle possible but mainly far northern OK into KS. #okwx

Looking good in the extended for OKC. Some colder air looming beyond the first week of Feb which isn’t unusual for this time of the year. Some signals for precip exist late next week. #okwx

It’s even better with a semi 🤠

A few snow showers today in and near the OKC metro (dusting up to one half inch) highs will hover near 30°.
We begin a warming trend Wednesday as our upper air pattern begins to change to erode this deep, Arctic airmass. #okwx

Some light snow possible tomorrow but generally a dusting to a trace can be expected for the OKC metro. NW OK (Arnett/Alva/Seiling) and points north have the best opportunity of accum. snow (1-3” poss.)
Warmer temps trend as we head into the latter part of the week. #okwx

Arctic blast on the way, some light snow possible for the OKC metro however, we likely will see less than 1” between Sunday through Wednesday. We do trend warmer towards the latter part of the following week. #okwx

Bitter cold temperatures coming into the weekend and early next Monday. Some light snow possible late Saturday and into early Sunday but no major impacts expected at the current time. We try and warm back up toward the middle of next week.

Steady warm up before the Arctic tundra returns. Some evidence of precip down the road and a very cold look over all synoptically. Wintry precip could be possible in the not so distant future again for the southern plains #okwx

Pipe bursting temperatures looking more likely as we head toward the 20th and there is a chance we could also see wintry precip again around that time #okwx

Heads up on big time cold heading down the plains around the 20th. 15-20° below average is significant in terms that OKC average temp for Jan is 43.9°. Real deal cold and potential for wintry precip possible! #okwx

Arctic front arrives tomorrow morning, cold to start the first half of the week and watching another system potentially around the 10th #okwx

Wind chills will be single digits come
Sunday night into Monday morning. Winter storm stays north of OK and most will be void and clear of it minus some blowing snow US-412 and points north in northern and northwestern OK. We warm toward the latter part of the following week. #okwx

In terms of Oklahoma, the system is largely going to pass to our north. Trends with ensemble guidance are converging on keeping it north. Some light flurries could be possible with the Arctic air that comes in as well as dangerously cold wind chills through the day Sunday and Monday morning. #okwx

Vast majority of OK will not have to deal with the winter storm on Sunday. However, kids at the bus stop Monday morning will experience some very bitter wind chills #okwx

Quite a bit of spread with ensemble guidance and quite suppressed the further south you go. However, there’s generalized agreement from KC points north and east for better amounts. Granted we are still a ways out. #okwx

Trending colder after the 5-7th of Jan. Some signals for precip around that period, however confidence is not very high on that right now. Very similar to the cold spell we had back in Dec. #okwx

Pretty solid heading into the first week of January. Enjoy it while it lasts though cause usually we see very cold and an uptick in frequency/intensity of winter storms around mid/late Jan. Hopefully we can scrape by this winter! #okwx

Walmart sells a lot of stuff but I’ve never seen “toilet golf” yet in a store but apparently it can be bought at Walmart

Something less talked about is the fact OKC could exceed their monthly average of rainfall in just two days before the end of the month
Average rainfall is 1.31” for the month of December is OKC. #okwx
