OKLAHOMA CITY -- Temperatures will feel cold Wednesday morning and cool during the afternoon. Thursday will bring in more sun and milder temperatures. Then Friday will present warmer temperatures and southerly winds 20 to 30 MPH with higher gusts along with a chance of thunderstorms, a few may be severe.

A sharp cold front will blast into Oklahoma Friday night and move across all of the state by noon Saturday with winds from the north at 20 to 30 MPH with higher gusts. There's still a chance of snow over northwest and north central Oklahoma Friday night and Saturday morning with rain elsewhere.

The system will move out of the state rather quickly but leave low temperatures Sunday morning in the 20's across approximately the northern one-half of the state, including the Metro.
