Freezing rain, sleet, and light snowfall are sweeping across central and western Oklahoma today, creating hazardous conditions for the morning commute and prompting delayed openings across schools and public services. Forecasters say daytime temperatures are struggling to rise above the low 30s °F, with wind chills dropping into the teens across some rural areas early Thursday. A light accumulation of snow and ice is expected in parts of the state, particularly on bridges and untreated roads, increasing the risk of travel disruptions as the winter system moves through.
Forecasters warned overnight that untreated roads, bridges, and rural routes would become hazardous during the early commute hours. The National Weather Service issued winter weather advisories covering large parts of central Oklahoma, citing a dangerous mix of sleet, freezing rain, and light snow.
Local radar imagery from NWS Norman shows unstable winter conditions continuing through the late morning, with patchy ice expected to linger into the afternoon in shaded and untreated areas.

Why Conditions Are Dangerous Today
Road crews remained active overnight, but temperatures hovering near freezing mean even treated surfaces may refreeze quickly. Local officials continue urging drivers to avoid unnecessary travel during slick morning hours.
School leaders say opening times were adjusted out of caution, especially for bus routes operating on rural highways and hills where traction is limited.
What Parents Should Do This Morning
- Check school district websites and alert systems frequently.
- Allow extra travel time if classes are delayed.
- Watch for black ice on overpasses and shaded streets.
- Be prepared for last-minute schedule changes.
