Gameday Forecast:

Stillwater:

For those heading to Stillwater for the big OSU vs. Texas Tech game, you’re in for a treat. With a 2:30 p.m. kickoff at Boone Pickens Stadium, expect clear skies and temperatures in the mid-60s—ideal for a November football game. It’s going to be a bit breezy, with south winds gusting to 20-25 mph, but it won’t be a dealbreaker. The winds will help keep things from feeling too chilly, and overall, it will be a beautiful day for the Cowboys to defend home turf.

Norman:

For the Sooner faithful, Saturday night will feature a showdown between OU and Alabama, with kickoff at 6:30 p.m. in Norman. While the day starts off warm with temperatures in the 60s for tailgating, once the sun sets, it will cool off quickly. Thanks to breezy south winds, temperatures will only dip into the mid-50s, which will make for comfortable evening conditions as long as you have a jacket. Whether you’re tailgating or watching the game from the stands, it looks like it’ll be a great atmosphere for a thrilling matchup.

On Sunday, we're looking at another gorgeous day, with highs climbing to around 71°F. It’s going to be sunny with light south winds, making for an excellent day to get outside and enjoy the weather. Whether you're spending time with family or enjoying the outdoors, it’s going to feel like a perfect fall day.

Thanksgiving:

Thanksgiving Forecast: A Chilly Holiday

1. A second cold front Wednesday night could bring scattered showers, with a 30% chance of rain overnight.
2. Thanksgiving Day highs will reach only the mid-40s, with sunshine expected by afternoon.
3. Black Friday will be sunny but cold, with temperatures remaining in the 40s.

Right now, it looks like we’re in for some chilly but not freezing weather for Thanksgiving.

Highs will be in the low 50s, and there’s a slight chance of rain showers in the morning, with a few snow flurries possible along the Oklahoma-Kansas border.

It’s still early, so keep an eye on the forecast as we get closer to Turkey Day.

Looking Ahead

Prepare for one of the coldest air masses of the season by late next week, with highs staying well below average as another cold front moves in. Enjoy the warm weekend while it lasts!
