Surface low pressure developed over western Arkansas, with a warm front arcing east-northeast toward the lower Ohio Valley. Very small amounts of instability near the warm front were sufficient for narrow lines of convective rain showers. Strong winds aloft translated down to the surface in the heaviest showers, causing isolated minor damage. The lines of heavy showers repeatedly moved over some of the same areas, resulting in isolated pockets of flooding.
