TULSA, Okla. — The City of Tulsa began early making preparations ahead of a snowy Friday morning commute.

The Tulsa metro area is expected to get about an inch or more of snow Thursday into Friday as a band of winter weather moves through Green Country.

The city says street crews worked 12-hour shifts to pre-treat roads with salt and brine then later apply salt and plow if necessary Friday morning. City services are mostly unaffected, but bulky waste pickups will be delayed by a week.

Slick road conditions have impacted traffic heavily with multiple accidents happening throughout the metro area, including at least one fatal crash along US 169.

Some Green Country schools adjusted their plans for the day — either distance learning or taking a snow day. 2 News Oklahoma has a list of closings that will update as more schools make adjustments.
