The climate of Tulsa (Oklahoma
- United States of America)
Tulsa is located in the state of Oklahoma. Tulsa is the second largest
city in the state after Oklahoma City. Where the economy is concerned
Tulsa is an important city, mainly because of the presence of oil.
Tulsa is one of the most important oil cities in the world. Many large
companies have their headquarters in Tulsa such as American Airlines,
SABRE and several international car rental companies. Tulsa has a warm
maritime climate (type Cfa according to the Köppen climate
classification). Winters are fairly mild, summers are warm to hot and
spring and fall are very erratic. During the summer temperatures of 40
degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) are not uncommon. If you
travel to Tulsa you should bear in mind that large deviations in
average climate figures are not uncommon. During the winter it may be
extremely cold during one week while the next week temperatures are
well above freezing point. During spring and early summer heavy
thunderstorms are not uncommon. When this occurs precipitation figures
may be very high and extremely large hail stones may fall. Tulsa is
located in an area with a risk of tornadoes. Although these storms are
not as destructive as hurricanes they may be more dangerous because of
their unpredictability.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
