Episode Narrative A strong cold front pushed into Arkansas on the 4th. In advance of the front, warm, moist air was in place. The atmosphere was more unstable than it had been any time so far this year. As a result, severe thunderstorms erupted along and ahead of the cold front. Numerous instances of wind damage occurred, especially in the southern half of the state. An isolated tornado occurred in Clark County.
Event Narrative A house had shingles and siding blown off, and its TV antenna blown over. At the same residence, a huge tree smashed into the tractor shed, and a canning shed was destroyed, scattering jars and bottles all over the back yard and an adjacent pasture. Numerous trees were blown down, as were a few power poles and power lines. Farm gates were destroyed.
