NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORMAN OK
138 PM CDT WED JUN 24 2026
FORECAST IS BASED ON FORECAST START TIME OF 1400 CDT ON JUNE 24.
IF CONDITIONS BECOME UNREPRESENTATIVE...CONTACT THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE.
FOR THE RED BARN FIRE... A WEAK OUTFLOW BOUNDARY (WIND SHIFT LINE) IS LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES
NORTH OF THE FIRE GROUND, AND IS VERY SLOWLY DRIFTING SOUTH. IF THE LINE (VISIBLE ON THE KFDR 88D)
CONTINUES THIS SLOW PROGRESSION, IT WOULD MOVE OVER THE FIRE GROUND AROUND 3 PM. LIGHT SOUTHWEST
WINDS AT THE INCIDENT SITE AT THIS TIME MAY BRIEFLY SHIFT TOWARD THE NORTHEAST IF THIS FEATURE
MOVES PAST, BUT CONFIDENCE IN THIS SCENARIO IS LOW (30%). THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE (20%) FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP NEAR THIS FEATURE BY LATE AFTERNOON, WHICH COULD BRING LOCALIZED
ERRATIC AND GUSTY WINDS. OTHERWISE, TEMPERATURES WILL REACH THE MID 90S WITH AFTERNOON HUMIDITIES
IN THE 40% RANGE. EXPECT SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS TO PREVAIL OVERNIGHT.
PLEASE CONTACT OUR OFFICE AT (405) 325-3816 IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS
OR CONCERNS WITH THIS FORECAST.
