Forecast Summary

Fog has formed across east-central OK into NW AR. The fog may be dense in spots but is patchy in coverage and confined mostly to valleys and near lakes. The fog will burn off shortly after sunrise this morning.

Afternoon heat indices are expected to be below 100 degrees across much of the region for most of this week. Advisory level heat is expected to return by next weekend, however. Heat precautions should still be taken for any extended time outdoors.

Thunderstorms are forecast to develop Saturday afternoon and evening and impact a good portion of eastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas. Hot conditions will persist through Saturday but cooler conditions are on the way for the early to middle part of next week.
