Arkansas Storms

6/20/2019 (Permalink)

Here in North East Arkansas we have been very fortunate and blessed this storm season so far. For whatever reason it appears that the strong storms miss the Jonesboro area more times than we see severe weather. Yes, we have had a lot of rain this season, well more than usual, and may have broken some records but we have not seen the severe weather that other parts of Arkansas have. We hear about tornado alley all the time and most generally the tornado producing storms are in the Oklahoma region. Last night there were some severe storms that passed once again from western Arkansas to eastern Arkansas all south of Jonesboro. We did see some rain here in Jonesboro last night but the 60-70 mph winds and severe hail and lightening all moved across the southern part of Arkansas. Photos of baseball size hall were all over social media last night also depicting damaged to vehicles. When severe weather does strike in North East Arkansas please give SERVPRO of Jonesboro a call at 870-934-0501 if our services are needed.
