Several tornados and thunderstorms caused damage across Northwest Arkansas and the River Valley Friday, Nov. 4. A total of 10 homes were damaged in Mansfield and surrounding areas as of Friday. There are also reports of some downed power lines and flash flooding in Sebastian County, and there were some water rescues within the City of Fort Smith.
About nine of the structures are considered minor damage but one home does have major damage. Sebastian County Office of Emergency Management Travis Cooper says they believe the house is unsuitable to stay in and possibly had part of the roof pulled off and a window busted out. Sebastian County Emergency Management plans to be out Saturday morning to assess the storm damage in the daylight.
