A low pressure system tracked across North Mississippi during the overnight hours of February 15th, 2015. Arctic air was already in place across much of the Mid-South. As a result, precipitation fell as a either freezing rain, sleet, or snow. Initially, precipitation began as freezing rain or sleet during the evening hours of February 15th into the early morning hours of February 16th. However, by mid-morning on the 16th, freezing rain or sleet transitioned to snow, mainly north of the Interstate 40 corridor. Total sleet and snow amounts ranged from an inch to as much as five inches across Northeast Arkansas while locations across East-Central Arkansas saw amounts around an inch. Anywhere from a tenth of an inch up to a half inch of ice fell from Interstate 40 southward into Northern Phillips County. Roads became hazardous resulting in numerous accidents. The precipitation tapered off by the early evening hours of February 16th.
