The LeFlore County weather forecast calls for a wet, unsettled weekend before warmer and drier weather moves in early next week, according to the National Weather Service.
Friday stays warm and humid with a high near 82 and about a 35 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms across the Poteau and Heavener areas, with downpours possible at times through the afternoon.
Saturday turns wetter — a high near 80 and a 70 percent chance of showers and storms, the kind of day to keep rain gear handy if you’re headed to the quilt show or out on the lake.
Sunday is the wettest stretch, near 81 with a 75 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms.
The pattern breaks Monday as skies dry out and temperatures jump to near 91, with only a 20 percent chance of a stray shower.
Rain chances peak over the weekend, and any storm could bring brief heavy rain and gusty winds before the warmer, drier air settles in.
