Hot Fourth Of July, Chances Of Storms In The Evening

Temperatures stay hot this week, and this 4th of July looks hot into the afternoon. Showers and storms are also possible during the afternoon and evening on Thursday.

What is the weather like on Thursday?

The Fourth of July looks hot as well, but another front comes knocking. This one may have a better chance of popping up storms Thursday afternoon and evening.

Storm chances vary across the state, but the best chances reside in east-central Oklahoma.

Despite the possibility for storms later on Thursday, it will still be hot, so be prepared for triple-digit temps. The best chance for rain will be along the front as it pushes south. This cold front will knock down the temperatures to highs in the 80s.

What does the weather look like for the rest of the week?

Much cooler temps. arrive Friday and into the weekend. A great weather pattern for next week as the heat dome is out west leaving us in a cooler spot! We also see rain and storms off and on next week.
