High winds swept across Arkansas, causing widespread power outages and disrupting daily life. Strong gusts knocked down trees and power lines, leaving thousands of residents without electricity. Utility crews worked tirelessly to restore power, but damage in several areas made repairs challenging. Many homes and businesses faced darkness, while schools and offices were forced to close temporarily. Emergency services advised people to stay indoors and avoid downed power lines. The severe weather also led to flight delays and road closures due to debris. Residents scrambled to find alternative power sources, while local authorities warned of possible further outages. As Arkansas recovers, meteorologists continue to monitor the weather for more potential storms that could bring additional disruptions.
