Power Outage in Sherwood, AR

Thunderstorm Wind. Numerous trees and powerlines were blown down throughout the city of North Little Rock.

June 25, 2023

An upper level storm system via a powerful jet axis moved around the periphery of High Pressure and drove a cold front into a very unstable atmosphere which provided the lifting mechanism for air parcels which would become severe thunderstorms. The cold front arrived during the heating of the day and plenty of CAPE was present to promote powerful updrafts that would suspend large hailstones. The collapsing of storms created a rush of cooler air (outflow) sending other storms downstream that would produce damaging winds. A couple embedded tornadoes were also noted during this period given the favorable atmosphere across central Arkansas.

A powerful storm system and associated upper trough propagated across the Central Plains into the the Mid-Mississippi Valley. Showers and thunderstorms developed in response to the passing trough triggering strong to severe thunderstorms across Arkansas.

As August began, drought conditions were widespread in Arkansas, with dryness the most noticeable in northern and western sections of the state. Above normal temperatures were also common. On the 8th, a cold front approached from the north, and brought chances of rain and promised temporary relief from the heat.||Ahead of the front, thermometers showed readings in the 90s. During peak heating, thunderstorms popped up quickly in the northern half of the state. Some of the storms cranked out damaging winds. Trees were downed at Gravel Ridge and Macon (both in Pulaski County), with one tree on a fence. More trees were toppled in west Little Rock (Pulaski County). The trees fell on power lines and a home, and power outages lasted into the overnight hours for some residents. Tree damage was also noted in Hot Springs (Garland County), and several utility poles were snapped. This was the most severe weather reported during the month.||Locations with an inch or more of rainfall were few and far between. Bogg Springs (Polk County) received 2.02 inches of rain, 1.16 inches at Mena (Polk County), 1.07 inches at Hot Springs (Garland County), and 1.00 inch at Batesville (Independence County).
