More storms expected to hit Oklahoma, Arkansas

Forecasters are warning residents of Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri to expect more serious storms Friday.

Yesterday, nine people were injured when three tornadoes touched down in Oklahoma and another two hit Arkansas.

The National Weather Service confirmed at least one tornado touched down Thursday night in the Tulsa suburb of Broken Arrow. However, the tornado did not appear to be a strong twister like the deadly one in suburban Oklahoma City last week.

Meteorologist Pete Snyder with the weather service’s Tulsa office said it appeared the roofs of some buildings were damaged, and police told the Tulsa World that they didn’t have any reports of buildings being destroyed.

Today’s storms could bring large hail and more tornadoes.
