The wider storm

A lifting warm front in conjunction with an approaching cold front from the northwest creating a recipe for convective severe weather as severe thunderstorms developed late in the evening of January 11th across central and northeast Arkansas leading to spotty wind damage and hail reports. However, transitioning into the early morning hours of the 12th, a line of storms swept across southern Arkansas producing damaging straight line winds.

Began near Ingleside (35.4700, -91.3500).
