After a rainy period ended in Arkansas on December 13th, another storm system visited from the southwest United States on the 14th/15th.
In the picture: The weather pattern at 600 am CST on 12/15/2007...with a storm system ("L") along the Gulf Coast and widespread precipitation surrounding the system.

Clouds increased, with rain developing in southern and western Arkansas on the afternoon of the 14th. During the overnight hours, rain became widespread as the system tracked along the Gulf Coast.  Toward dawn on the 15th, drier air was pulled in from the southwest (a dry slot)...which cutoff available moisture. Precipitation mostly ended temporarily during the morning/early afternoon of the 15th.

More moisture eventually wrapped around the system from the Plains later on the 15th, with some light snow across the northern counties. However, there was little to no accumulation. There was light rain/drizzle farther south.
In the picture: The satellite (water vapor imagery) showed deep moisture (with widespread precipitation) east of Arkansas and wraparound moisture (leading to light snow) in northwest sections of the state at 445 pm CST on 12/15/2007.

	Precipitation amounts for this event were generally between one and two inches, with locally more than three inches in western sections of the state. In the far north and west, less than an inch of precipitation was measured.
In the picture: Forty eight hour (two day) rainfall totals ending at 6 am CST on 12/16/2007. "E" is estimated precipitation.
