MONDAY WEATHER OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT – 01/05/2026

We will see a day of near-record warmth as we kick off the work week. Unseasonably mild air has moved into northern Oklahoma, pushing temperatures roughly 20–25 degrees above our seasonal norms. While it will be a beautiful day to be outdoors, the combination of warmth and dry air keeps fire safety a top priority.

Here is your detailed forecast from the NWS/Norman:

The Details

  • Conditions: Sunny and exceptionally mild.
  • High Temperature: Near 73°F.
  • Low Temperature: Low temperatures will settle around 40°F.
  • Wind: South Southwest winds will continue at 10–15 mph. Gusts up to 23 mph. Winds calm tonight to around 6-8 mph, becoming northwesterly after midnight.
  • Precipitation: Zero percent chance of rain; dry conditions will persist through at least mid-week.

Safety Tips

  • With near-record high temperatures and ongoing dry conditions, elevated fire weather remains a concern for the area. Please avoid any activities that could produce sparks and ensure all trailer chains are secured to prevent dragging.
  • Remember to download our Garfield County EM app! The app is a great way to stay informed and prepared.

 

Stay safe and have a great Monday!
