We now have our first Atlantic basin hurricane of 2026, and it has broken the record for the latest hurricane to form in the season. Isaias is now a Category 1 and will likely strenthen as it makes landfall on the Gulf Coast Friday evening.

The record high for today in Oklahoma City was 104, set in 1918. At 2:00, it was 106, and we will likely aren't done heating.
Wichita Falls and Lawton have already reached the 106-108 range, but each will have to work to reach their record of 111 (2023 and 2024, respectively).

Video from Anna Johnston in Spokane, Washington shows traffic jammed up as residents continue to evacuate due to the Old Trails Fire. The fire continues to spot and grow due to very strong winds.
The Dwight Merkel outdoor Sports complex that was full for Saturday activities has been forced to evacuate. Evacuations now run as far north as Rutter Parkway. This is a wildland urban interface nightmare. The fire is over 2,000 acres.

First, credit to the Spurs. They made the big plays down the stretch in the 4th with some clutch 3s. Still proud of our team. Great season for the @okcthunder battling through a lot. Time to get some rest, get healthy, and be ready to go next season. As always, #ThunderUp

We really gonna dumb the NBA down to that?”
