A weak front in the state helped to spark thunderstorms on the 28th and 29th. Isolated severe weather occurred in the southern part of the state on the afternoon of the 28th. During the evening of the 28th, the front moved slightly back to the north, settling across the middle of the state. During the wee hours of the 29th, very heavy rain began in parts of eastern Arkansas. This rain continued for much of the morning on the 29th as storms repeatedly traveled along the frontal boundary.
