A large hardwood tree was blow down in the community of Gravesville.

The wider storm

An approaching frontal boundary to the Natural State at the beginning of the episode would become a stationary boundary as the upper level flow pattern would begin as an approaching positively-tilted trough axis which would become an omega block and lock the mesoscale feature of the stationary boundary in position across Arkansas leading to a multiple day period of severe weather.

Began near Gravesville (35.3900, -92.3600).
