Severe weather is taking aim at Tulsa and Oklahoma City this Easter weekend, with meteorologists warning of heavy rain, strong winds, and the risk of flooding through Sunday. A powerful spring storm system is sweeping across Oklahoma, bringing rounds of thunderstorms that could turn severe, especially from Friday afternoon through Easter Sunday.
Tulsa is expected to see locally heavy rainfall and possible damaging winds, particularly in areas south of the I-4 corridor. Temperatures will vary, with highs in the upper 60s north of I-4 and mid-70s to the south on Saturday. Some storms have already produced tornadoes after moving into Arkansas, highlighting the volatile nature of this system.
A Flood Watch remains in effect for the Tulsa area, with officials urging residents to stay alert as conditions can change rapidly. Oklahoma City will also experience cooler temperatures and moderate rain, with highs near 59°F on Sunday before warming up early next week.
Residents in both Tulsa and OKC are advised to monitor local weather updates and take precautions as the severe weather threat continues into the weekend.
