Tulsa weather Labor Day weekend: Below-normal temperatures hang on in Green Country With Rain Chances

Will Sunday Bring Any Rain?

Some of us could see a few showers on Sunday as a weak upper level wave brushes the area.

Most locations, including the Tulsa metro, will have this slight chance for a few showers on Sunday. Most of this activity should stay light. But we could see a downpour or rumble of thunder in a couple of spots.

Temperatures stay mild and seasonally pleasant, with Sunday morning lows in the lower to mid-60s and afternoon highs reaching the upper 70s. Rain chances around Tulsa are about 30% to 40%.

What Can We Expect for Labor Day?

Labor Day continues the trend of pleasant weather. Expect partly sunny skies with morning lows in the mid-60s and afternoon highs in the low to mid-80s. A weak disturbance nearby could bring an early morning shower or storm to a few areas.

Late Monday night into early Tuesday morning, another stronger disturbance will move across the central plains and into northeastern Oklahoma early Tuesday morning. Some showers or storms will be possible with this disturbance during this period.

When Does the Next Stronger Front Arrive?

The next noticeable pattern shift arrives in the middle to late part of next week. A weak boundary will likely move through on Tuesday morning with the above-mentioned disturbance, but a stronger cold front is expected Wednesday night into Thursday.

That system could bring a round of scattered showers and thunderstorms along with cooler air. Ahead of the front, expect highs in the mid-80s with morning lows in the 60s.

Once it passes, another stretch of below-normal temperatures looks likely as we close out the week and head into the first weekend of September. Thursday morning lows should drop into the mid to upper 50s for most locations, with Thursday afternoon highs in the mid 70s.

How Long Will the Cooler Pattern Stick Around?

Forecast trends suggest that cooler-than-average temperatures may linger into next weekend. Highs could dip into the 70s, with some northern Oklahoma locations starting the day in the 50s.
