Several small restaurants in Norman were forced to temporarily close after a recent storm knocked out power across the city, costing thousands of dollars in losses.
Mickey’z Corner, Othello’s of Norman and Moon Sushi & Asian Bistro are a few of the businesses impacted by the Fourth of July storms. OG&E and Oklahoma Electric Cooperative customers were without power starting late Saturday, with the last few customers’ power being restored Tuesday night.
