On May 2, 2026, the Broken Arrow area experienced a severe thunderstorm system that produced damaging winds, hail, and localized flooding. This storm alert covers the impacted neighborhoods within the Tulsa metro, including parts of Broken Arrow, Tulsa, and Jenks.

The storm system moved through Green Country during the late afternoon hours, with the National Weather Service issuing severe thunderstorm warnings for Tulsa, Wagoner, and Rogers counties. Meteorologists reported wind gusts up to 70 mph in some areas, with hail sizes ranging from penny to quarter diameter depending on the specific cell track. These conditions are consistent with the spring severe weather patterns that typically affect northeast Oklahoma from April through June.
What to Do After the Storm
After a severe weather event, take these immediate steps: document any visible damage with photos and video, contact your insurance provider to file a preliminary claim, and schedule a professional roof inspection before signing any repair contracts. Avoid working with out-of-town contractors who may appear in your neighborhood offering quick repairs. Proof Construction offers free inspections with comprehensive drone documentation for all Broken Arrow homeowners affected by this storm.
Additionally, check your attic for signs of water intrusion, as some leaks may take days to become visible on interior ceilings. Inspect gutters and downspouts for hail damage, and examine your HVAC condenser unit for dented fins that could indicate the hail size and impact angle. These observations can provide valuable evidence for your insurance claim and help your adjuster accurately assess the full scope of damage to your property.
