Snowfall reports are in | How much did we get?

Snow showers arrived mid-morning across western Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma. Many saw flurries but not everyone got the snow to stick.

ARKANSAS, USA — The wind has honestly been worse than the snow... But speaking of snow, we have your snowfall reports from Tuesday morning. Flurries have winded down across 5COUNTRY. So how much did we get? Plus, how will the roads be tonight?

Tap here to track the snow heading east. 

Generally, we picked up snow showers everywhere, but not every location saw it stick. In Northwest Arkansas, we picked up about a dusting. A few places were close to a half inch around Fayetteville. Further south into the mountains, we had a couple of reports from 1 to 2 inches.

Turning cold tonight, some re-freezing

It's going to get cold tonight! We will drop quickly into the 20s across 5COUNTRY this evening and overnight. Winds should start to slow down—finally. It's been nothing but cold, cloudy, and sometimes snowy.

At least the sunshine is coming back! Enjoy the sun for Wednesday and Thursday before more wintry weather returns on Friday. We will also rebound into the 50s for the next couple of days.

What's next

We have some rain changing to snow Friday, but even more snow will hit Sunday night as temperatures plummet to the single digits at night.
