Tulsa Weather: Flood Threat Continues Through The Weekend, Temperatures Stay Below Normal
Flood Alerts for All of Green Country
Flooding will still be an issue over the next couple of days as rain and storm chances continue over the next few days. Scattered shower and storms will be likely again as we head into Sunday with primarily a flood risk, but one or two could pulse severe with local wind gusts near 60mph possible with any of those storms.
How Long will the Rain Last?
Daily rain chances continue to be in place as we head through mid week. The highest chance will be over the weekend with slightly lesser chances for the first half of the upcoming week.
Any Severe Threats?
While the severe threat remains low overall, a few storms could produce strong downburst winds capable of prompting brief severe thunderstorm warnings on Saturday. And once again, the threat for localized flash flooding could quickly increase under the heaviest storms so remain very aware of that flooding threat.
Recreational Impacts
Area lake levels remain elevated, which could impact some recreational areas. Many lakes also have floating debris. Use extra caution on the water. Levels are slowly dropping, but will remain high for the upcoming week.
