Today Might Be Oklahoma’s Last 100-Degree Day of 2025

It’s been a long, sweaty summer in Oklahoma, but today might just be the last 100-degree day we’ll see this year.

I say “might” because Oklahoma weather has a nasty habit of flip-flopping the forecast. Like when there's a 90% chance of rain three days from now, but it drops to zero when that day comes around...

Still, if the forecast holds, tomorrow’s high drops back into the double-digits for good, and we’ll be done cooking on the sidewalk until next summer.

If the forecast holds, this would be an early movement towards fall, something we haven't seen since that glorious mid-90s summer of 2020.

In any other year, Oklahoma usually wrings every last drop of heat out of August, then adds a couple of extra scorchers in September for good measure. Triple-digits hanging around through the Oklahoma State Fair isn’t uncommon. But this year, it feels like even the weather is ready to clock out and go home.

Now, there’s always the chance for a rogue hot spell to sneak back in. We all know that, but when you get to mid-August and the highs are trending down, the odds of another century-mark day get slimmer by the hour.

The funny part is, this isn’t a gentle fade. We’ve been baking in near-record heat, and suddenly the long-range forecast starts hinting at highs in the upper-80s and mid-90s across the state.

Oklahoma doesn’t normally do gentle transitions. It's usually a bipolar switch-up from blazing hot to freezing temps for First-Fall in mid to late October or early November.

So if today really is the last 100-degree day of 2025, take a good look around. It has been a milder-than-most summer. Even the grass is still green throughout most of the Sooner State.

All the same, Oklahoma's known for two things. Tornadoes and meteorologists who miss the mark, but it's not their fault... It's the weather that refuses to follow the script.
