Tulsa Weather: Rain For Some To Start The Week
What can we expect early this week?
Monday, a weak boundary will approach that will give us a slight cool down. A plume of tropical moisture from remnants of Pacific systems may lift northeast across the central Plains, edging into our area. As a result Monday will feature more clouds and some showers, especially north of I-44. Highs will be a bit lower in the upper 70's and mostly 80's. The rain moves out Tuesday and we start to warm again with sunny weather and mid to upper 80's for the remainder of the week.
A shortwave embedded in the southwesterly flow could help initiate scattered showers and storms near the boundary late Sunday night into early next week. The front will likely remain near or northwest of I-44, keeping higher rain and storm chances in those areas.
By midweek, the upper ridge is expected to build back northward, with warm and dry conditions likely to continue through the remainder of next week before breaking down as a stronger front approaches the state late next weekend.
