Tulsa, OK – Showers and isolated thunderstorms continue across eastern Oklahoma this evening, mainly north of Interstate 40, with pockets of heavier rain possible through late Sunday.
According to the National Weather Service in Tulsa, storms were ongoing as of 7:35 p.m. Sunday, March 1, 2026, with the greatest coverage along and north of U.S. Highway 412, including areas near Tulsa, Bartlesville, Pryor, and Miami. Forecasters said a low chance exists for a stronger storm capable of producing small hail, but widespread severe weather is not expected.
The activity is moving northeast at around 40 mph, meaning communities in far northeast Oklahoma and toward the Kansas and Arkansas borders could continue to see passing downpours into the late evening hours.
While the overall severe threat remains limited, residents are urged to move indoors if thunder is heard and to monitor the latest weather updates. Drivers should use caution on wet roadways, especially where rain falls steadily or briefly intensifies.
Cities south of I-40, including McAlester and much of southern Oklahoma, are expected to see fewer impacts from this round of storms.
Rainfall amounts are expected to remain generally light to moderate, though isolated heavier pockets are possible under stronger cells.
