    Tulsa Local Pulse: Icy conditions disrupt schools, police seek burglary suspect, and a $16M healthcare plan announced.
    Feb 20 2025
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Thursday, February 20, 2025. We're starting off with some significant updates from around the city.

    First off, winter weather continues to impact our daily lives. Due to icy road conditions, several schools are closed today, and many are transitioning to virtual learning. You can check our school closings page for a complete list of affected schools and churches[3]. This includes major districts like Edmond Public Schools, Oklahoma City Public Schools, and Norman Public Schools.

    In other news, the Tulsa Police Department is seeking help identifying a suspect in a vehicle burglary near 61st and MLK Jr. Blvd. If you have any information, please contact the authorities.

    On the city hall front, there's been a call for transparency after Tulsa Public Schools delayed the public release of an audit report. Local representatives are urging the district to be more open about their findings.

    Moving on to weather, today is expected to be quite chilly, with temperatures ranging from 1 to 9 degrees Fahrenheit. We're looking at a clear sky, but it's still important to bundle up if you're heading out[4].

    In business news, the Cherokee Nation has announced a $16 million plan to boost cancer care access for its citizens and nearby areas. This is a significant development for healthcare in our region.

    Looking ahead to community events, the Tulsa Neighborhood Conditions Index pilot program is set to revitalize communities. This initiative aims to improve living conditions and quality of life for residents.

    On the sports front, local teams are gearing up for their next matches. We'll keep you updated on any significant wins or achievements.

    In a feel-good community story, the Sinclair Cares initiative is hosting a 'Supporting Children's Literacy' town hall tonight. This is a great opportunity to get involved in supporting local education.

    Finally, in our crime report, the Tulsa Police Department is investigating a shooting that killed two teens and injured two others. They are seeking a third teen suspect in connection with the incident.

    This has been Tulsa Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

    Winter Storm Watch and Warming Stations in Tulsa as Extreme Cold Hits Green Country
    Feb 18 2025
    Good morning, this is Tulsa Local Pulse for Tuesday, February 18, 2025.

    We're starting off with breaking news on the winter storm that's hitting Green Country today. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Watch until February 19 at 6 a.m. and an Extreme Cold Watch from 6 p.m. today until Thursday at noon. MetroLink Tulsa is offering free fares and a warming station at the Denver Avenue Station to ensure safe travel during these extreme weather conditions[1].

    City crews are preparing brine trucks to treat elevated surfaces overnight to prevent snowmelt from freezing. The City of Tulsa is responsible for clearing snow and ice from all arterial streets, but not from most major highways that pass through. The Oklahoma Department of Transportation handles those[1].

    In other news, local schools are taking precautions due to the weather. You can find the latest school closures by visiting our website. Additionally, warming shelters are available for those in need, and we have resources on how to help those affected by the winter weather[1].

    On the job market front, there are no major announcements today, but we'll keep you updated on any significant changes. In real estate, the cold weather might slow down some outdoor activities, but it's a good time to explore indoor listings. We recommend checking local listings for updates on open houses and new properties.

    Culturally, Tulsa is always vibrant, and despite the cold, there are plenty of indoor events to enjoy. However, due to the weather, some outdoor events might be postponed or canceled. We'll keep you updated on any changes to the community event calendar.

    In sports, local school teams are gearing up for their next matches, but some games might be rescheduled due to the weather. We'll bring you the latest sports updates as they happen.

    In community news, a feel-good story comes from the Cherokee Nation, which has announced a $16 million plan to boost cancer care access for its citizens and nearby areas. This initiative aims to improve healthcare services in the region[3].

    On the crime front, Tulsa police are seeking help identifying a suspect in a vehicle burglary near 61st and MLK Jr. Blvd. If you have any information, please contact the authorities[3].

    Finally, a quick look at the weather: today, we're expecting moderate to heavy snow showers with temperatures ranging from 1°F to -8°F. The snowfall is expected to be around 7.2 inches, so please plan your day accordingly and stay safe on the roads[2].

Tragedy struck late Thursday night when a car crashed into a creek near 91st Street and Riverside Drive, claiming the lives of two Holland Hall teenage girls and critically injuring another. Our hearts go out to the families and friends affected by this devastating incident[5].

    In other news, if you're planning to head out today, be aware of the ongoing roadwork. US-412 is narrowed to two lanes in each direction at 81st West Avenue in Sand Springs due to a bridge rehabilitation project. Additionally, I-244 is closed between I-44 and the Arkansas River bridge in West Tulsa, with detours in place. Check the latest traffic advisories before you leave to avoid any delays[2].

    Weather-wise, today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 13 degrees Celsius and a low of -2 degrees Celsius. There's a slight chance of patchy rain, so don't forget your umbrella. Looking ahead, the rest of February is expected to see moderate rainfall and possibly a few snowy days, so stay tuned for updates[3].

    On a lighter note, there's plenty to do in Tulsa this weekend. The Vintage Tulsa Show is happening at the Tulsa Expo Square, featuring over 250 booths of antique and vintage goods. If you're a wine enthusiast, the Philbrook Wine Experience is a must-visit, with internationally renowned vintners and regional restaurants coming together for a weekend of wine tastings and seminars[1].

    In sports, the American Contender Tournament Central Regional Semifinals and Finals are taking place at the Ford Truck Arena, showcasing the best in Western sports and music entertainment. And for those who love to dance, the Dance Your Heart Out Swing Dance is happening tonight at the Southminster Community Center[1].
