A surface low pressure system developed along the Rio Grande Valley in Texas on Sunday, 1/9/11, and tracked northeastward along the Gulf Coast as a upper level disturbance moved into the Mid-South during the evening hours of 1/9/11. Cold air was already in place across the Mid-South behind a cold front that had moved through two days prior. As a result, precipitation associated with the system began in the form of snow mixed with sleet at times Sunday Evening 1/9/11 but quickly changed over to all snow. Most of the snow fell across southern portions of the Mid-South. The snow tapered off during the morning hours of 1/10/11.  Snow totals across Eastern Arkansas ranged from a dusting across Northeast Arkansas to around 3 inches from a line near Wynne to West Memphis. South of this line...widespread snow amounts of 4 to 8 inches were reported. Roadways became hazardous due to the snow as a result numerous accidents occurred across the area.
