FRIDAY DECEMBER 19, 2025
0255L-FRIDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/19/25 Winds will blow again today BUT they’ll be out of the SSW 15-25 with gusts upwards of 30 to 40 mph. Yesterday’s fire up on North 16th would have been a lot worse if it had jumped the road. We were placed into a RED FLAG WARNING due to low humidity and strong winds yesterday but conditions today shouldn’t be as bad. Response to that fire came from [...]
THURSDAY DECEMBER 18, 2025
0315L-THURSDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/18/25 WIND will be our nemesis as the fire danger increases. We have a cold front that will push through the area shifting winds out of the north with some gusts upwards of 35+mph. I will just say this, NO CONTROLLED BURNING as you won’t be able to control fire with the expected winds. We are in a near critical fire danger today. Tomorrow, winds will be southerly and [...]
WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 17, 2025
0320L-WEDNESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/17/25 DENSE FOG ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 AM THIS MORNING. There may be some areas that could encounter some freezing fog so use extreme caution and slow down especially on bridges and overpasses. Other than this, we should have a warm and windy day. As stated yesterday, Fire weather is still in play due to foliage being dead. As we warm up a little and the winds [...]
TUESDAY DECEMBER 16, 2025
0245L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/16/25 WARM again today with highs in the upper 50s. The only issue will be that there is a chance for fog this morning and possibly freezing fog in areas where temps have dropped near and below freezing. We are at 32 right now at 0240L so if fog develops, watch out for a thin layer of frost/ice on bridges and overpasses. Other than that, we’re good for now. [...]
MONDAY DECEMBER 15, 2025
0245L-MONDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/15/25 WARMER is the ticket for today and for a good portion of the week. We will be under westerly flow thus bringing warmer than normal temps. The arctic is shutoff at least for a while so this week would be that time to get outside and find that area where you can soak in some sunshine. We do expect a front around mid-week but as of now, it [...]
SUNDAY DECEMBER 14, 2025
0245L-SUNDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/14/25 COLD. That pretty much says it all.

If you have to be outside today, protect your skin, bundle up the kids, and also make sure your pets get taken care of. We should see sunshine this afternoon as the clouds slowly move out but won’t see temps above freezing [...]
DECEMBER 13, 2025
0325L-SATURDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/13/25 COLD AIR is coming. The front will arrive this afternoon sometime in the 1 and 4 timeframe.

Overnight, expect lows to drop into the teens and wind chill temps may drop to single digits. The cold will last all day Sunday and [...]
FRIDAY DECEMBER 12, 2025
0305L-FRIDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/12/ 25 Fairly warm, windy, and mostly clear today. Saturday looks about the same UNTIL a cold front pushes in mid to late afternoon, maybe sooner, and things go downhill quickly. After that front pushes in, temps will go from 50 degrees at roughly 4pm to 32 degrees by 10pm with windchill temps in the low 20’s. Sunday morning temps will be in the teens and wind chill temps [...]
THURSDAY DECEMBER 11, 2025
0300L-THURSDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/11/25 Another warm day is expected with gusty southwest winds. Our highs will be at least in the mid-60s. Now, the Fire Danger is rising slowly so if you see smoke or fire out there, call 911. Not expecting anything crazy but winds will be gusty. Another cold front will traverse the area later tonight bringing a gusty windshift into the area overnight and into Friday. High temps will [...]
WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 10, 2025
0315L-WEDNESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/10/25 A cold front has moved through the area and will affect temps this morning.

TUESDAY DECEMBER 9, 2025
0315L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/9/25 PATCHY FOG IS POSSIBLE THIS MORNING. IF IT OCCURS, USE CAUTION, ESPECIALLY ON BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES. With Temps looking to reach the 60s and winds being a little gusty, we’ll seem cooler than it really will be. 60’s look good and we’ll feel that a little better on the north side of any building while standing in the sun and out of the wind. We’ll have several fronts [...]
MONDAY DECEMBER 8, 2025
0245L-MONDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/8/25 NOTICE- The KVNX (VANCE RADAR) will be down after while for maintenance. There is a possibility that the radar may be down until Tuesday. No rough weather is expected so just wanted to let you all know. Weather-wise, cold this morning along with cloudy conditions.

SUNDAY DECEMBER 7, 2025
0258L-SUNDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/7/25 A cold front will traverse the area this morning taking the clouds and fog away. Highs will be cool in the low 40s and winds will be gusty out of the north with some gusts around 25 mph. Pretty nice day, though cool and windy but at least visibilities will be ok. Temps this week will average in the mid-50s and it appears we’ll have a cooldown by [...]
SATURDAY DECEMBER 6, 2025
0250L-SATURDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/6/25 There is a DENSE FOG ADVISORY in effect East of a line from roughly Altus to Ponca City. We could see some fog around here too, but as stated yesterday, SLOW DOWN and use EXTREME CAUTION on bridges and overpasses. Remember that bridges and overpasses will freeze around 34 degrees and with mist/fog in the area they will be slick. If traveling east or south, watch out for [...]
FRIDAY DECEMBER 5, 2025
0243L-FRIDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/5/25 There is a slight chance for freezing fog this morning. If it occurs, slow down and drive carefully as the mist will create slick and hazardous conditions, especially on bridges and overpasses. Other than that, a trough will push through today with only a wind shift. We should be warmer as the day progresses and for Saturday, we’ll have that fog possibility east and southeast of the area. [...]
THURSDAY DECEMBER 4, 2025
0320L-THURSDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/4/25 Cold and windy this morning with a slight chance for some snow. Accumulations here should be light, if at all. The main issue will be in the event we do see some freezing drizzle, sleet, or even snow and the bridges look wet, slow down as they may be slippery. Read the graphics attached carefully. If you plan on traveling south today, use caution as that area is [...]
WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 3, 2025
0325L-WEDNESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/3/25 IMPORTANT MESSAGE- The railroad has been replacing railroad ties on the line that goes northwest of Enid. Several crossings that were smooth are now dangerously rough. At Carrier, on 132, SLOW DOWN or you could lose control of your vehicle. The speed limit is 65 mph in the Carrier area. Seriously though, slow down. Several folks have called to complain. I will be checking other crossings and will [...]
TUESDAY DECEMBER 2, 2025
0255L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT- 12/2/25 Today should be a bit warmer than yesterday but we have a weak front that will move through later tonight. Then Wednesday, another front will bring a chance for a winter mix, most likely south of us, depending on the storm track. Chances for any precip here are low at least for now. The above said, we warn about bridges and overpasses for a reason, even if we [...]
MONDAY DECEMBER 1, 2025

NOVEMBER 30, 2025

This said, storm track and moisture availability are the key issues that need to line up and [...]
