It could be a Record Hot Summer in Tulsa

National Weather Service/Owasso 411

Already the Tulsa area has set records for high temperatures on several days this summer…and the hottest days of the season are still ahead. Meterologist in Charge at the National Weather Service Office in Tulsa, Steve Piltz, says it could be a record breaking year, if the summer pattern continues.

Piltz says it has been drier than it was last summer, so mornings are a little cooler. But he says when it’s drier it also heats up faster…so we could have even hotter days in July and August than during the brutal summer of 2011.
