Updated at 1217 AM CDT Sun Sep 6 2026 - An extended period of hot weather will persist through the upcoming week. Heat headlines will be needed most days. - Low afternoon rain/storm chances are in the forecast through the Labor Day weekend and again late this week. Storms may produce locally strong wind gusts and brief heavy rainfall. - What rain that does fall early this week is unlikely to reverse recent drought trends. - Localized fire weather concerns will exist most days due to the worsening drought. && .SHORT TERM... (Through Sunday) Issued at 1134 PM CDT Sat Sep 5 2026 Overall, quiet conditions are likely through the overnight hours, with lows remaining in the 70s for the vast majority of the area. Sunday will feature very similar weather to Saturday, though temperatures could end up a degree or two warmer. Heat headlines remain in effect for the entire area from 12-7 PM, including an Extreme Heat Warning for the AR River Valley in W-Central AR. Based on Saturdays observed high temperatures/heat indices, there is a chance the Extreme Heat Warning may need to be expanded to include parts of E OK as well. However, given the expectation for greater shower and thunderstorm coverage Sunday, temperatures may fall short of potential in some areas, and have held off on any upgrades for now. A backdoor cold front is still forecast to push west-southwest into the FA Sunday afternoon-evening. Higher moisture will be in place ahead of the front and isolated to scattered afternoon/evening storms will be possible across the entire area. Deep inverted-V profiles will again foster potential for downbursts and strong wind gusts mainly between 40 and 50 mph. Severe weather is unlikely overall, but a locally damaging downburst cannot be ruled out in this environment. Dangerous cloud-to-ground lightning and brief heavy rainfall may also occur. In any case, please keep an eye on weather conditions if participating in any outdoor holiday weekend activities. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday Night through Saturday) Issued at 1134 PM CDT Sat Sep 5 2026 Convection is likely to be trending down Sunday evening with loss of daytime instability. The front will continue to push westward Sunday night into Monday with drier and slightly cooler air filtering in from the east behind it. CAMs indicate isolated showers and storms will again be possible to the west of the boundary Monday afternoon, but with ridging intensifying overhead, coverage is more uncertain. Based on HREF/REFS guidance, have introduced 15 percent PoPs for parts of E OK Monday afternoon. High temperatures will remain near or above 100 degrees Monday with heat headlines probable for parts of the area again. The center of the ridge moves directly overhead Tuesday into Wednesday with more hot and dry conditions. Heat headlines will likely be required through this period. By Wednesday night, the ridge is expected to flatten as a strong upper level low develops across the Upper Midwest into Canada. This is will force a cold front south into our vicinity with increasing rain and storm potential. The front will be weaker by the time it reaches our area, and there is still uncertainty how far south it will make it, but it should provide some cooler temperatures and increased rain potential for at least northern portions of the CWA Thursday into Friday. Southerly flow and above average temperatures return to the area ahead of a stronger cold front which may push into the area late next weekend. && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 1217 AM CDT Sun Sep 6 2026 VFR conditions will generally remain in place through the forecast. The possible exception would be impacts from widely scattered afternoon thunderstorms. Short term guidance does favor slightly higher coverage Sunday afternoon especially across western AR terminals. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

Updated at 1134 PM CDT Sat Sep 5 2026 - An extended period of hot weather will persist through the upcoming week. Heat headlines will be needed most days. - Low afternoon rain/storm chances are in the forecast through the Labor Day weekend and again late this week. Storms may produce locally strong wind gusts and brief heavy rainfall. - What rain that does fall early this week is unlikely to reverse recent drought trends. - Localized fire weather concerns will exist most days due to the worsening drought. && .SHORT TERM... (Through Sunday) Issued at 1134 PM CDT Sat Sep 5 2026 Overall, quiet conditions are likely through the overnight hours, with lows remaining in the 70s for the vast majority of the area. Sunday will feature very similar weather to Saturday, though temperatures could end up a degree or two warmer. Heat headlines remain in effect for the entire area from 12-7 PM, including an Extreme Heat Warning for the AR River Valley in W-Central AR. Based on Saturdays observed high temperatures/heat indices, there is a chance the Extreme Heat Warning may need to be expanded to include parts of E OK as well. However, given the expectation for greater shower and thunderstorm coverage Sunday, temperatures may fall short of potential in some areas, and have held off on any upgrades for now. A backdoor cold front is still forecast to push west-southwest into the FA Sunday afternoon-evening. Higher moisture will be in place ahead of the front and isolated to scattered afternoon/evening storms will be possible across the entire area. Deep inverted-V profiles will again foster potential for downbursts and strong wind gusts mainly between 40 and 50 mph. Severe weather is unlikely overall, but a locally damaging downburst cannot be ruled out in this environment. Dangerous cloud-to-ground lightning and brief heavy rainfall may also occur. In any case, please keep an eye on weather conditions if participating in any outdoor holiday weekend activities. && .LONG TERM... (Sunday Night through Saturday) Issued at 1134 PM CDT Sat Sep 5 2026 Convection is likely to be trending down Sunday evening with loss of daytime instability. The front will continue to push westward Sunday night into Monday with drier and slightly cooler air filtering in from the east behind it. CAMs indicate isolated showers and storms will again be possible to the west of the boundary Monday afternoon, but with ridging intensifying overhead, coverage is more uncertain. Based on HREF/REFS guidance, have introduced 15 percent PoPs for parts of E OK Monday afternoon. High temperatures will remain near or above 100 degrees Monday with heat headlines probable for parts of the area again. The center of the ridge moves directly overhead Tuesday into Wednesday with more hot and dry conditions. Heat headlines will likely be required through this period. By Wednesday night, the ridge is expected to flatten as a strong upper level low develops across the Upper Midwest into Canada. This is will force a cold front south into our vicinity with increasing rain and storm potential. The front will be weaker by the time it reaches our area, and there is still uncertainty how far south it will make it, but it should provide some cooler temperatures and increased rain potential for at least northern portions of the CWA Thursday into Friday. Southerly flow and above average temperatures return to the area ahead of a stronger cold front which may push into the area late next weekend. && .AVIATION... (00Z TAFS) Issued at 625 PM CDT Sat Sep 5 2026 VFR conditions will prevail through the forecast period.

(Through Sunday Night) Issued at 1229 PM CDT Sat Sep 5 2026 A broad high-amplitude ridge exists aloft over the central part of the country today, though there is no well-defined ridge center. With conditions more favorable aloft, CAMs continue to suggest that the combination of afternoon heat and humidity and elevated terrain will get some showers and storms going this afternoon. As we head into Sunday, a back door front will attempt to make a southwestward push toward our area.

Heat stress will remain an impact today with widespread heat index values of 105 to 110 degrees this afternoon across much of eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. Isolated afternoon thunderstorms may also develop across western Arkansas and spread westward into eastern Oklahoma through early evening. Any storm which does develop could produce locally strong gusty winds. Rainfall amounts will remain light. SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT... Spotter Activation Not Expected. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday. SUNDAY...Thunderstorm and Dangerous Heat Potential. MONDAY through WEDNESDAY...Dangerous Heat Potential. THURSDAY and FRIDAY...Thunderstorm and Dangerous Heat Potential. EXTENDED DISCUSSION... Dangerous heat index values will continue daily through the upcoming week. Heat advisories may be needed for portions of the region each day. Isolated thunderstorms will remain possible Sunday afternoon with locally strong and gusty winds possible with any storms that do develop. Additional low thunderstorm chances return by late next week as a weak cold front approaches the area. Uncertainty remains high with the eventual southward progression of the front but it will be a feature to monitor for the late week forecast. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information. $$ ]]>Sat, 05 Sep 2026 10:18:57 +0000https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/excessive_rainfall_outlook_ero.phpSorry, product text is unavailable.]]>Sat, 05 Sep 2026 08:37:46 +0000https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/p.php?pid=202609050706-KTSA-CDUS44-CLITUL072 CDUS44 KTSA 050706 CLITUL CLIMATE REPORT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TULSA OK 206 AM CDT SAT SEP 05 2026 ................................... ...THE TULSA OKLAHOMA CLIMATE SUMMARY FOR SEPTEMBER 4 2026...
