Storm Alert: Broken Arrow — May 4, 2026

Real-time storm activity and damage reports for the Tulsa Metro area.

Storm Details

The May 4, 2026 storm event brought additional severe weather to the Broken Arrow and Tulsa metro region, with reported wind speeds exceeding 60 mph and hail up to quarter-size in some neighborhoods. This second storm in three days compounded damage from the earlier May 2 event, making roof inspections even more critical for affected homeowners. Multiple neighborhoods in south Tulsa and north Broken Arrow reported downed tree limbs and visible roof damage.

Proof Construction dispatched emergency response teams immediately following the storm, prioritizing homes with active leaks and exposed roof decking. Our forensic inspection teams use drone technology to assess damage safely and comprehensively, documenting every impact point for insurance claim purposes.

The back-to-back nature of these storms presents a unique challenge for homeowners. Even if the May 2 storm did not cause visible damage, the cumulative effect of multiple hail impacts can weaken shingle granules and compromise the waterproof seal between shingle layers. This is why a professional forensic inspection after multiple storm events is strongly recommended, even if no immediate leaks or visible damage are apparent from ground level.

Emergency Response Steps

If your property was affected by the May 4 storm, you should take immediate action to prevent further damage. Cover any exposed roof areas with tarps if safe to do so, document all damage with dated photographs, and contact your insurance provider to open a claim. Proof Construction offers free emergency tarping services for Tulsa and Broken Arrow residents, with response times as fast as 2 hours in affected neighborhoods. Contact our team at (918) 734-4444 to schedule an inspection.

When filing your insurance claim, be sure to reference both storm dates (May 2 and May 4) and mention any prior damage that may have been exacerbated by the second event. Oklahoma insurance law requires carriers to cover all storm-related damage discovered within the policy period, even if some damage occurred in an earlier, unreported event. Proof Construction's claim specialists can help you navigate this process and ensure your adjuster's scope accurately reflects the full extent of damage to your roof.
