Governor Asa Hutchinson is approving $100,000 in emergency funds to assist with flood support efforts in the state. The flooding, resulting from rainfall in northeast Oklahoma flowing downstream, is expected to get worse with storms set to pass through the state by mid-week. People interested in volunteering with recovery efforts can sign up here.
