A fast-moving storm passed through west-central Arkansas Monday night, leaving damage to trees and power lines as well as damage to the roof of the Crawford County Courthouse.
Winds up to 90 mph hit Van Buren around 10 p.m. Currently, there is no confirmation on whether or not the damage was caused by a tornado or straight-line winds. The storm moved through the county and also left damage in Alma.
I have spoken with dozens of residents today who are still without power, and some Concord Water and Sewer customers in the city have reported water outages, Joe Hurst, Van Buren mayor, said.

BILLINGS â Even mighty Texas, the energy powerhouse of America, is feeling the wrath of Mother Nature. And the consumption of power throughout the nationâs midsection during an unprecedented cold snap is causing rolling blackouts as far north as Eastern Montana.
Two Montana electric cooperatives, NorVal and McCone, both had brief rolling blackouts Tuesday related to the southern winter storms, which affected hundreds of customers.
NorVal Electric Co-op serves about 1,925 customers in the Opheim-Glasgow area, while McCone Electric s service area includes 14,400 square miles stretching from Miles City to Glendive to Wolf Point, then west to Cat Creek.
