Event narrative

A Trace amount of snow was measured near Shady Grove.

Wider weather episode

A storm system from the southwest spread moisture into the state and wrap-around moisture on the backside of a cold front allowed for portions of the Ozark, Boston, and Ouachita Mountain regions to pick up some snow. Snow was reserved to only a few inches of accumulation in northern Arkansas and the Ouachita Mountains only saw trace amounts of snow with this system as the moisture quickly moved off to the east-northeast.
