LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS TORNADO
On March 31 a Tornado Emergency was issued for Little Rock Arkansas
as an EF3 tornado was tearing through town at 50 mph. In its 34 mile long wake, At least 2,700 structures, houses, apartments, businesses and churches would be damaged or destroyed. With peak wind speeds estimated at 165 mph this long tracking tornado would cause 54 injuries and miraculously only 1 fatality was reported. However, this tornado outbreak was just beginning and another intense storm
was racing directly toward the town Wynne Arkansas.

WYNNE ARKANSAS TORNADO
Southeast of Wynne I observed a thin tornado with a high debris cloud for about 3 minutes before it appeared to dissipate. Then, I believe a second much larger tornado developed further north. Radar velocity appears to validate that these were indeed two separate tornadoes but I'm not 100% positive. The much larger tornado was heading directly toward the town center as I documented it while driving north on Highway 1.

This Tornado (currently rated at least EF3) would carved a path through Wynne (Cross County) around 445 pm CDT. Structures were obliterated, and at least four fatalities resulted. Farther downstream, the same tornado wreaked havoc (i.e. homes damaged or destroyed and trees uprooted or snapped) just west of Parkin (Cross County) and north of Earle (Crittenden County). South of Turrell (Crittenden County), The tornado eventually crossed the Mississippi River and dissipated near Burlison, TN after a 73 mile trek.
