What the National Weather Service wrote

Video footage showed a short-lived tornado occurring over farm fields. This brief tornado did not cause any damage. The tornado has been given a rating of EF-unknown (EF-U) since the extent of the damage was none.

The wider storm

A stationary front across the Mid-West portion of the CONUS led to a ample warm sector with plenty of moisture and warm air streaming into the Natural State which led to multiple days of severe weather which included tornadoes, wind damage, and several instances of flash flooding across the state as Arkansas saw several days of moderate to heavy rainfall.

Began near Screeton (34.7335, -91.6975).
