when was arkansas ice storm
January 26-28, 2009 Northwest Arkansas Ice Storm Pictures Page 1 of 2. I didn't think I'd end up chasing this ice storm, but after watching the radar precip estimates exceed 4 inches in a wide area, falling into sub-freezing air, I figured it could be worth the trip. I set my alarm for 2:30 a.m. in hopes of being through KC by 6.
