Wed Sep 18 17:28:00 UTC 2024: ## Texoma Faces Record-Breaking Heat This Week, Followed by Potential Severe Storms
**Texoma, OK (KTEN)** – Texoma residents are bracing for a sweltering week with temperatures expected to reach near-record highs, 13-14 degrees above average. The culprit? An “omega block,” a weather phenomenon where a high-pressure ridge is trapped between two low-pressure systems. This pattern will keep Texoma under the influence of the ridge, resulting in unusually hot temperatures throughout the week and into the weekend.
A cold front is predicted to arrive on Sunday into Monday, potentially bringing severe thunderstorms to parts of the region. The front will be pushed by a low-pressure system moving across the Central Plains.
KTEN urges residents to stay informed and download the KTEN weather app for updates. The station will also provide more details on the developing weather situation.
