Crosstown Church at 3400 E. Admiral in Tulsa is offering to shelter residents.

Johns Park is one neighborhood where shallow flooding of up to one foot is expected. 

Also on the list for potential flooding is Saker and Southtown.

City leaders say because the soil is already saturated from earlier rain, the people living here should be ready to evacuate if they're told to do so.

They're also expecting shallow flooding of up to one foot in downtown Bixby, specifically from Memorial to Riverview and then south of Needles to Bixby Creek. Riverview Terrace is also expecting shallow flooding.

There is no significant impact expected for neighborhoods north of the Arkansas River right now.

The city is planning on keeping Bixby residents updated through Nextdoor, Facebook, and through News On 6.
