Friday sees one more day of sunshine before weather turns active this weekend
Friday sees temps starting in the 50s but outside of watching for critters, morning commuters will be in good shape. We'll enjoy one more day of sunny skies with a stalled frontal boundary nearby. Temps will quickly rise into the 70s this afternoon but as wind gusts increase to 20-30 mph this afternoon, keep outdoor burning to a minimum.
Friday evening starts with mostly clear skies as wind gusts stay on the breezy side. Clouds will gradually build in overnight, mainly across the eastern mountains, with wind gusts pushing 25-35 mph so watch for loose debris and trashcans. Overnight lows will drop down into the 50s for a very mild overnight.
Saturday sees a partly cloudy and breezy start in the morning. Most of our Saturday will see plenty of dry time so if you need to get anything done, through the afternoon will be the best. Dinnertime into the overnight will see clouds thicken and scattered showers/storms move in across our west first. A cold front will cross Sunday morning, bringing in scattered heavy downpours and the chance for some strong to severe storms – damaging winds and hail our the biggest risks, but can't rule out a low tornado threat.
Sunday morning sees our cold front cross, starting with scattered showers and thunderstorms. Our cold front will exit to the east through lunchtime into the afternoon, leading to a drier second half. In all, we could see spots reach an inch of total rainfall Saturday through Sunday so watch for ponding on roadways with local highwater issues. Even if you don't see any severe storms Saturday/Sunday, both days will be windy with gusts in excess of 40-50 mph so watch for power issues/outages during the weekend.
Monday brings back sunny skies as an area of high pressure builds in across the southern U.S.. After a previous week of very warm temps, Monday will feel a lot colder with colder air pushing through – 30s in the morning followed by daytime highs near 50 in the afternoon.
Look Into The Future Using Our StormTracker 59 Predictor
Tuesday morning once again starts very cold with most in the 30s so wouldn't hurt to pack a jacket for those out to the bus stop or to work. Our area of high pressure isn't going anywhere so expect dry weather to remain with just some passing clouds. Daytime highs will see quite the boost as they get into the 60s!
Wednesday starts with a dry first half as we see a partly cloudy morning. Temps will once again warm up some more as we get into the 70s this time for the afternoon commute. Expect clouds to increase Wednesday night as the chance for rain arrives with our next system.

In your extended forecast, a cold front will cross Wednesday night into Thursday, bringing in another round of scattered rain. Unlike our last cold front, this one won't have as much juice to it. It will however usher in some colder air Thursday night into Friday with the chance for some light snow. Daytime highs on Friday will drop into the 50s.

Legendary Oklahoma Meteorologist Gary England Dies at 85
Longtime KWTV chief meteorologist Gary England has died. He was 85. The Oklahoma City, Oklahoma CBS affiliate said England kept Oklahomans informed for 41 years. Upon his retirement in 2013, England was called the Oklahoma's Master Meteorologist by NPR, while The New York Times called him The Weather God of Oklahoma City. 'We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved Gary England passed this evening. Gary passed peacefully on the evening of June 10th, surrounded by his loved ones, including his wife of 63 years, Mary, and his loving daughter, Molly. Gary was proud to have protected Oklahoma from its deadliest storms. He will be deeply and forever missed,' his family said in a statement. He was known for pioneering the use of technology in forecasting. In 1981, he became the first person in history to implement Enterprise Electronics Doppler radar for direct warnings to the public. In 1990, England developed First Warning, an automated severe weather warning system that provided instant weather warning maps in the corner of the television screen. One year later, he created StormTracker, a system that projected the path of storms and the time of their arrival, a program that is now used nationwide. England authored 4 books and was the subject of another. He appeared in more than 50 national and international severe weather programs in addition to the Steven Spielberg movie "Twister." In 2006, England was a keynote speaker for the dedication of the new National Weather Center in Norman, OK. As part of the Oklahoma Centennial celebration in 2007, he was immortalized by the sculpting of his bust, which honored '100 Heroes and Outlaws' of Oklahoma repute during the state's first 100 years. England was inducted into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 2013. KWTV

Gary England, beloved CBS meteorologist who appeared in Twister, dies aged 85
Gary England, who spearheaded local weather coverage for over 40 years and became internationally recognized for his work, has died at 85. 'We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved Gary England passed this evening,' his family said in a statement to local CBS affiliate KWTV News 9, where he worked for 41 years. 'Gary passed peacefully on the evening of June 10th, surrounded by his loved ones, including his wife of 63 years, Mary, and his loving daughter, Molly. Gary was proud to have protected Oklahoma from its deadliest storms. He will be deeply and forever missed.' Born in Seiling, Oklahoma, in 1939, England completely changed the way severe weather was covered across the United States and internationally. He made history in 1981 when he became the first person to use Enterprise Electronics' Doppler radar for direct warnings to the public. But his innovative ways didn't stop there. In 1990, England developed an automated severe weather warning system known as First Warning. The system showed warning maps in the corner of the TV screen for viewers to track serious storms. The next year, he created StormTracker, a system that projected the path of storms as well as their time of arrival. That system is now used nationwide. A 2013 Oklahoma Hall of Fame inductee, England wrote four books, including an autobiography titled Weathering The Storm, and had a fifth written about his life and work. In addition to appearing in over 50 national and international severe weather programs, England was also in the opening scene of the 1996 Steven Spielberg film Twister as a meteorologist. Longtime News 9 viewers have been heartbroken to learn of England's passing. 'RIP king. I remember as a child with pretty bad Tornado anxiety in OK, it always made me feel better know Gary was on watch. What a legend,' one viewer wrote on X. 'Truly the greatest. nothing else made me feel safe during a tornado than his voice!' someone else wrote. 'The world genuinely owes him a debt of gratitude for how he advanced weather science & tech. the lives he's responsible for saving are countless. godspeed good sir,' another shared. Someone else said: 'A true pioneer and legend. He somehow always had a way of making you feel safe even in the most treacherous of storm conditions. RIP to a true legend and weather pioneer.'
