Norman, OK – An upper level trough over the Rockies supports an amplifying upper level ridge over the southern plains. At the surface an east to west pressure gradient favors a warm moist southerly flow. Expect dewpoints to steadily climb over the next 24 hours and the likelihood of precipitation to increase.

The trough moves east towards midweek, and will likely bring a cold front through the region with heavy precip, gusty winds and the return of cooler temperatures.
