TULSA, Okla — After the F-1 tornado that hit north Tulsa on March 6, 2 News Oklahoma caught up with residents about how they're rebuilding.

Suzanne Desautel said it's not her first time experiencing severe weather, so she’s keeping extra stocks of batteries, water and flashlights.

“This storm wasn't quite as severe as the last one we had, but it did hit, of course, at night, when things were hectic and people were trying to go to bed" she said. "It affected a lot of people, people that lost their roofing.”

She also said she's lived in her North Tulsa home for about three years, and also sustained some damage in March.

“We did lose our hot water heater vent and the roofing," she said. "We had some roofing work done, but we had some really good roofing people that took care of it right away.”

She said the community rallied together during tough times.

“In times of disaster, everybody pulls together," said Desautel.

In fact, less than a day later, 2 News covered the Dream Center helping to rally people together to help residents who were impacted by the tornado.
