There have been two reports of damaged structures, with one home that sustained tree damage, and a duplex that sustained roof damage. TAEMA is working with PSO to ensure power is restored to certain residents affected by power outages and downed lines. 

Though initially closed for Veterans Day, the City of Tulsa Mulch Site at 2100 N 145th E Ave. will open today for tree limb drop off only through 5 p.m. 

Residents can also bundle limbs and branches and tie them into bundles no more than 2-feet across and 4-feet long, weighing less than 40 lbs., and put them alongside their refuse cart on their regular trash day and crews will pick them up.
