Public Service Company of Oklahoma (PSO) says it has restored power to more than half of the customers hit by the weekend storms, but over 55,000 are now entering a fifth day without power.

PSO says about 3,500 workers from around the country are actively working on the restoration effort. PSO says at the peak, 204,000 people were without power.
