945 FXUS64 KOUN 020616 AFDOUN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Norman OK 1216 AM CST Tue Dec 2 2025 ...New NEAR TERM, SHORT TERM, LONG TERM... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 1212 AM CST Tue Dec 2 2025 - A cold front Wednesday will bring colder weather into Thursday. Breezy post-frontal winds may give way to single digit to teens wind chill values. - There is a slight chance for light wintry precipitation Thursday morning across western north Texas and far southern Oklahoma. && .NEAR TERM... (Through Tuesday) Issued at 1212 AM CST Tue Dec 2 2025 Surface ridge will continue to push off to the east today as lee troughing increasing along the Rockies. That being said, southerly winds will return across the southern Plains by this afternoon. Temperatures will be much warmer this afternoon beneath sunny skies. We will mostly see afternoon highs in the 50s for the entire area. Bunker && .SHORT TERM... (Tuesday night through Thursday night) Issued at 1212 AM CST Tue Dec 2 2025 A weak front will begin to move into the northwest portions of Oklahoma on Tuesday night. Overnight temperatures ahead of this boundary will be in the low to mid 30s, and into the 20s along and behind the front. The next mid-level trough will dig into the Desert Southwest on Wednesday, helping to push the front through the area by the late morning hours. Winds behind the front area expected to be breezy, and will roughly be between 15-25 mph. The drier air will keep afternoon highs similar to Tuesday, with most locations in the 50s and perhaps even low 60s across southern Oklahoma. As the main wave traverses the Rockies Thursday morning, there is a low chance for wintry mix across portions of western north Texas and southern Oklahoma. These chances are low at this time, as drier mid- level and low-level air may inhibit any precipitation at all. Should precipitation begin in the morning, it will transition to rain during the late morning and early afternoon as temperatures warm up above freezing. At this time, little-to-no accumulation is expected. Bunker && .LONG TERM... (Friday through Monday) Issued at 1212 AM CST Tue Dec 2 2025 By Friday and Saturday, temperatures are expected to rebound back up into the 50s to 60s, with dry conditions. Another cold front will move in Saturday evening, knocking temperatures down a few degrees on Sunday. Dry conditions will continue through the weekend and into the early portions of next week.
