Heat Advisory In Place For Eastern Oklahoma

The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory for most of eastern Oklahoma as hot, humid weather settles over the state.

The advisory remains in place until 9 p.m. Tuesday.

News On 6 meteorologist Alan Crone says highs are expected in the 103 to 107 range for the next couple of days.

The National Weather Service says the combination of hot temperatures and high humidity will make prolonged outdoor activity dangerous.

Crone says cooler air is expected for the weekend as a cool front moves southward allowing for a mild cool down for the weekend. Morning lows should drop into the 50s and 60s followed by afternoon highs near or in the lower 80s.
