Drought Continues

With seasonably warm temperatures, low relative humidity and a breezy southwest wind, elevated fire weather conditions return across portions of western Oklahoma and western-north Texas on Monday.

Strong northwesterly winds behind a cold front, along with low relative humidity during the afternoon, will lead to fire weather danger across portions of the area on Wednesday.

A prolonged period of dry weather and above-average temperatures continues this week (cooler by the end of the week), with intermittent concern for fire weather across western portions of the area.

Last Thursday's minor relief (i.e., rain and storms) wasn't enough to end the developing drought on its own. We expect dry weather to continue for the next 1-2 weeks across Oklahoma and north Texas.

Local Weather History For January 12th...

A strong cold front moved into the region on this date in 2017,
dropping temperatures 20 to 30 degrees in a very short amount of
time. In Arnett, just southwest of Woodward in northwest Oklahoma,
the temperature fell from 67 degrees to 37 degrees in just one hour.
With strong northerly winds to make the 37 degrees feel even colder,
these events can go from a nice day to dangerous cold if you are not
prepared.
