Rain Subsides, Weak Cool Front Drops Temps Friday

Friday-Saturday will be quiet, but more storms are coming in for late Sunday which will increase our chances of a few strong to severe storms during that time frame. 

What will the weather be like in Oklahoma on Friday, July 5?

A weak cold front moves across Green Country overnight and will push most of the rain off to our south by Friday morning.

By Friday afternoon, instead of triple digits we’re looking at highs in the upper 80s to around 90 with much lower humidity!

What will the weather be like this weekend in Oklahoma?

Here's some great news as we head into the rest of the holiday weekend: The excessive heat will take a break!

EMSA HEAT SAFETY TIPS:

1. PRE-HYDRATION is key in preventing heat-related illness. Drink plenty of water or electrolyte replacement drinks several hours before and during long exposure to the summer heat.
2. Wear light-colored, loose-fitting clothing and a wide-brimmed hat if working outdoors, and take plenty of shade breaks.
3. No alcohol or caffeine.
4. If you do not have air conditioning, find a cooling station or public space (such as libraries or malls) during the day.
5. Don’t limit your use of air conditioning.
6. Use the buddy system if working outdoors and check on elderly neighbors.
7. Keep a cell phone on you at all times when outdoors, including walking, running daily errands, yard work or sports and physical activity.

Friday-Saturday will be quiet, but more storms are coming in for late Sunday which will increase our chances of a few strong to severe storms during that time frame.
