Light Wintry Precipitation for Monday

Cold air has settled in across Oklahoma thanks to Saturday’s cold front. The Next Weather Maker will be able to take advantage of the cold air and produce some light wintry precipitation across the area. Due to this, Monday is a Weather Warn Day for some minor impacts to the commutes, especially the morning. We don’t expect much out of this system, but these low-end events are sneaky and can catch people off guard.

This system isn’t very strong and lacks moisture. Since this system isn’t very robust, temperatures will be more likely to stay above 32, even in the morning. Due to these factors, we don’t expect much precipitation outside of a light snow for northern Oklahoma and a light, patchy freezing rain for portions of central Oklahoma.

Primary Precipitation Type

Not everyone in these highlighted areas will see precipitation and where it does fall will be very light. We don’t expect much in the way of impacts, but elevated surfaces like bridges and overpasses could still be slick in spots.

Check out the model snapshots below to see the approximate timing for the precipitation. We’ll start out in the morning and go into the afternoon and even evening hours across Green Country.

With light precipitation comes light accumulation. Here are the below snowfall and ice accumulation forecasts as of Sunday afternoon for Monday.
