A cold front pushed to the south across Arkansas on March 10th, and it started turning cooler and dried out. Data showed storm systems forming along the front, and pulling moisture back into the region on the 11th.
As moisture returned, showers started popping up during the morning of the 11th. Temperatures were only in the 30s and 40s. In the northern two to three rows of counties, the atmosphere cooled aloft in the afternoon. Given mostly subfreezing air overhead and a lack of melting, rain changed to snow and was heavy at times.
More than four inches of snow piled up at a few locations in the north. At Cave City (Sharp County), 5.0 inches was measured, with 4.8 inches at Calico Rock (Izard County), 4.0 inches at Mountain Home (Baxter County) and Swifton (Jackson County), 3.8 inches near Jonesboro (Craighead County) and Snow (Marion County), and 3.5 inches at Batesville (Independence County), Bergman (Boone County), Onia (Stone County), and Salem (Fulton County).
This snowfall caused hazardous travel conditions all across northern Arkansas.
