Right now, precip is forecast to be exiting the area before the really cold air arrives. However, remember just a small amount of wintry precipitation can cause travel issues. Stay apprised of the latest forecasts at weather.gov/tulsa.

Quick post about the upcoming weather for eastern Oklahoma. The ONLY certainty is the temperature will drop beginning Sunday afternoon. Most of next week will be frigid. What’s UNCERTAIN is the amount of (if any) precipitation will accompany the cold blast.
