Early Sunday morning, severe storms swept across Oklahoma. Most of the damage at this time is reported in western Oklahoma, where at least three tornadoes touched down.
Harrah and Newcastle experienced particularly severe damage. Power outages are widespread. 37,000 customers lost electricity, primarily affecting Oklahoma City and surrounding communities.
As of Sunday morning, six people were hospitalized with injuries that aren’t life-threatening.
In addition to the tornadoes, heavy rainfall led to flooding worries across much of the state. Forecasts predict additional rounds of storms into Monday. A flood watch is in effect for much for eastern Oklahoma until Monday at 6 p.m.
