Event narrative (NOAA)
Widespread flooding occurred over Texas County. A section of Highway BB one quarter mile east of the bridge over the Big Piney River became flooded and impassable to motorists. A 53 year old man was killed after his car was swept off of Highway BB. An investigation concluded that the man may not have observed the flooding prior to driving into it. Visibilities were reduced due to heavy snow.
