The NWS Weather Forecast Office in Tulsa and the Arkansas-Red Basin River Forecast Center will begin providing daily river forecasts for the Verdigris River near Claremore, OK and near Inola, OK, effective November 1, 2016.

Starting November 1, a forecast will be issued once daily in the morning, with more forecasts issued throughout the day during times of flooding. No new action is required by users to receive the daily forecasts.
