Winter Weather in Baxter, Arkansas

The Mountain Home Airport received 0.07 inches of freezing rain accumulation.

A strong cold front progressed southeastward across the state late evening of the 18th through the early morning hours of the 19th. This brought very cold temperatures to the state. Before the cold air could depart the region, a new storm system approached from the west. While surface temperatures remained at or below freezing, temperatures a few thousand feet above the surface were much warmer. This led to the main form of precipitation being freezing rain which led to slick roads and ice accretion from southern Oklahoma into western and northern Arkansas from the afternoon through late evening hours of the 21st.
