Moderate-to-heavy rainfall is likely, along with flood potential, on Monday and Tuesday, and again towards the end of the week. Check back for latest rainfall amounts, as these will change with new incoming data!

The latest forecast indicates the potential for 3 to 6 inches of rainfall through Friday for areas generally north of I-40. There is a risk of flooding, especially for northern into central Oklahoma.

An early taste of fall temperatures remains on track as we move into next week. Just how cool conditions are any given day will likely be dependent on precipitation and cloud cover.
