Oklahoma Storm Timeline
While Tulsa saw heavy rain and intense thunderstorms, southeastern Oklahoma received lighter rainfall but is expected to experience increased totals as more rain moves in.
As the day progresses, another round of storms is anticipated, with severe weather risks increasing through the evening and overnight.
Wind damage is a primary concern, though there’s a low—but not negligible—tornado threat.
Flooding has become a growing issue, particularly given the long-standing drought conditions. With soil unable to absorb the influx, runoff is exacerbating flood risks.
Additional rounds of rain forecasted through Monday could bring another 2 to 3 inches around Tulsa and up to 5 inches in southeastern Oklahoma, compounding flooding potential.
Showers are likely to ease on Tuesday, providing a brief pause before more storms appear later in the week.
Northeast Oklahoma has various power companies and electric cooperatives, many of which have overlapping areas of coverage. Below is a link to various outage maps.
