OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) _ Temperatures in the 90s and a chance for scattered showers are expected across Oklahoma for the next several days.

The National Weather Service said Sunday will be partly cloudy with daytime highs in the 90s and a chance for showers and thunderstorms in southeast Oklahoma. The chance for rain will decrease into Sunday night, with overnight lows expected to range from the 60s in the Panhandle to the 70s across the rest of the state.

Monday should see partly cloudy skies with a chance for rain in the northeast, southeast and Panhandle as a weak cool front moves into the state. Highs are still expected to be in the 90s.

The extended forecast calls for a slight chance for showers across most of the state on Tuesday, as daytime highs remain in the 90s. Overnight lows are expected to range from the 60s in the Panhandle to the 70s elsewhere.

Partly to mostly clear skies are forecast for Wednesday, with a slight chance for rain in east-central sections of the state. Highs are expected to be in the 90s, with overnight lows in the 70s.

Partly cloudy are expected on Thursday, with highs in the 90s and overnight lows in the 70s.
