I sure hope everyone is doing OK tonight. Seems like CenterRidge was hit again. Reports in Rock Creek and down in the Wrightsville area. Stay safe tonight.

Harold.. you're in East End. Are you and your's OK? They are reporting a major gas leak there as well.... geezz, I hate weather like this.
State Office of Emergency Management is reporting 3 confirmed dead and 25 injured in Scottland, AR. This area is North of Morrilton and South and East of Clinton on State Hwy 95.
Weather just getting started here in Batesville, power surge knocked my equipment off line at work so it looks to be a long night for me.:(
Howard County sheriffs dept. report lots of structural damage in Dierks, radar reporting another on its way. One reported around Rosston in Neveda County as well
Nothing here in the Northeast part of the state YET.
Everyone stay safe.
Good grief. Another potential tornado reported closing on East End again. I sure hope Harold and all his folks are safe and well hidden.
yea My fishing buddy and I were at two of our favorite honey holes this afternoon and the wind was hellish. It hasn't hit here in NE AR yet but we know it's coming.
My buddy and I are insane when the storms hit. Last year during one of these spring storms ( during the actual storm and rain and hail) we caught our largest catch of slab bluegill we have ever stringered. Some were 2lb + and we each had a limit when we finally ran for the truck because it started to hail.
lol..... <---- hardcore fishing....
Storm Prediction Center folks have upgraded us to a high risk of damaging long tracked tornadoes until about 7AM.
Gonna be a long night.
Hopefully it goes as usual and those tornadoes end up in dyersburg and mississippi. NOT THAT I WANT ANYTHING BAD TO HAPPEN TO THEM, but we get very lucky most of the time here in Marked Tree and they either go north of us or south by about 50 miles.Quote:

everyone say a prayer.
Sirens going off in Nashville now. second one to come thru Howard county tonight, looks like third one fixing to enter the state coming out of OK. looks like its going to be a rough night statewide
this storm seems like it might affect the whole south. Not just Tennessee.Quote:

we will be either at the seep ditches or the lower St. Francis River at the bottoms.
Big fish get caught during this kind of disturbance here around marked tree and the sunken lands preserve.
Sheridan and to the South is under the gun now. This is just mess. Looks like the arsenal is gonna see some action as well. Stay safe folks.
I hope everyone over there in Arkansas is okay. Sure glad my son was in Hawaii on his honeymoon. He's in Maumelle. Looks as if they are saying you may get another round today as well. The dew points aren't as high as yesterday and plus the atomsphere is a little more stable. Any ways you guys be safe and if you need any help here from Oklahoma let us know.
Thanks for the prayers and the offers of help. We seem to be holding our own and for now, all is quiet.
Maumelle didn't take much damage as far as I know. Winds in my area were not bad and I'm not that far from there. All of Maumelle is within about 12 miles as the crow flies from me.
It sure made for a long night. Not looking forward to that again, but I guess I'll be taking a nap soon and checking all the usual stuff once more just to sure we're ready.
I hope Harold and others are safe. East End, CenterRidge, Scottland.... all got whomped pretty good last night. They do seem to be claiming only one dead at this point, despite confirmed reports of three dead last night.
We'll know more later today, I'm sure.
Hey neighbors, I hate to info you of this afternoon's weather, but with the sun juicing up the atomsphere and your dew points are now in the upper 60's and low 70's and strong upper level winds you are going to have another rough afternoon and evening.
Please make sure you keep your eyes open and ears glued to radio or television. Another tornado watch will be issued from N. La thru central Ark to the Ark/Mo line. East to the W. Miss. This will be issued by 3 pm today.
I just hope and pray no one has to endure this severe weather and hope no more lose of life is in place. You guys take care over there and please don't hesitate to ask for help.
It's starting again.
Yup... they have been issuing flash flood watches and thunderstorm warnings and now they just issued the first tornado warning. Bleh... Seems like its in Jefferson Co heading to Lonoke Co.
Looks like things may have got rough at Gold Creek. Hope Dan is ok.
Man you guys are getting bad over there. Yes let's hope Dano and crappie pro are alright.
Wow at least 30 counties under a tornado warning. New warning for Little rock now.

Thanks for asking.
