Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn outflow boundary from showers and thunderstorms that developed over Southwest Oklahoma during the evening and overnight hours on April 10th became stationary over Northern McCurtain County Oklahoma into the adjacent sections of Western Arkansas during the early morning hours of April 11th. This boundary focused scattered shower and thunderstorm development through the morning of the 11th, with large scale forcing enhanced especially during the afternoon and evening hours as a weak upper level trough traversed the Red River Valley of Southern Oklahoma/North Texas into Southwest Arkansas. Afternoon heating and cooling temperatures aloft ahead of this disturbance contributed to moderate instability developing especially over Southeast Oklahoma, Northeast Texas, and portions of Southwest Arkansas, contributing to the development of several severe thunderstorms over these areas. Damaging winds were the primary severe weather mode over Southwest Arkansas, with numerous trees and power lines downed especially across the south side of Texarkana Texas and Arkansas, as well as adjacent Lafayette and Columbia counties. An isolated tornado was even spawned just east of Magnolia in Columbia County along the small line of severe thunderstorms. As the storms moved into a slightly more stable air mass across Northcentral Louisiana, they began to slow their southward motion such that heavy rainfall repeatedly moving over the same areas resulted in areas of flash flooding generally along and north of the Interstate 20 corridor. The storms weakened during the late evening hours as the instability diminished.
