A strong closed upper low pressure system ejected northeast through the Oklahoma/Texas Panhandle region during the afternoon and evening hours of March 16th, which helped mix a dry line east across Oklahoma and Texas. Ahead of this dry line, a broad warm and moist sector spread north across the Ark-La-Tex, which allowed for greater instability to overspread into the area ahead of this surface feature. A complex of showers and thunderstorms developed over West Texas during the late afternoon through the evening hours on the 16th, before advancing east across the state during the overnight and early morning hours of the 17th. Some of these storms remained severe as they moved through East Texas around and shortly after daybreak, where damaging winds downed trees and power lines before gradually weakening as they moved into Western Louisiana. However, some of these storms re-intensified and became severe during the early afternoon across portions of North-central Louisiana, where several trees were snapped and uprooted near Dubach in Lincoln Parish, with an isolated tornado also briefly touching down just west of Farmerville in Union Parish. These storms exited the region by mid-afternoon.

An upper level trough over Northern Mississippi drifted west into Southern Arkansas, Northern Louisiana, and extreme Northeast Texas during June 28th, which helped to ignite scattered showers and thunderstorms over Southcentral Arkansas and Northcentral Louisiana during the afternoon and evening hours with the aid of diurnal heating and ample low level moisture. An isolated severe thunderstorm developed over Eastern Union County Arkansas by mid-afternoon, which drifted south southwest into portions of Northcentral Louisiana. This storm produced damaging winds which downed a tree and power line near the Vienna community before diminishing in intensity during the evening.
