| Episode Narrative | A strong Arctic cold front moved across Arkansas on the night of the 14th and the morning of the 15th. Temperatures plunged 25 to 30 degrees in just a few hours. An overrunning pattern soon developed, with warmer, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico moving up and over the top of the colder air. The result was freezing rain and sleet over the entire county warning area, with some light snow mixed in over the northern part of the state. The wintry mix began on the morning of the 15th in the northwest part of the warning area, and then spread across the remainder of the area later on the 15th and during the wee hours of the 16th. Precipitation diminished to freezing drizzle on the morning of the 16th and then continued into the afternoon hours. The wintry precipitation brought hazardous driving conditions throughout the area. |
| Event Narrative | Sleet, freezing rain, and a little snow accumulated to around 1/4 inch at Marshall. |
