@brainscar Thank you for posting! Don't see too much about Fort Smith on YouTube, so it's nice to see some. :)

@leandar Also, while I was at work that night, I was listening to KISR all night and the guy (I think, the owner) who usually does the weather said it had flooded out on Rogers Avenue near Creekmore Park and that never happens! Oh btw, I do remember the schools closing in 1996, I have the old video that KFSM put out of the tornado coverage and they mentioned something about the schools being out the day after the tornado.

i was there when that happened
We found two softball sized hail stones that hit at an angle and penetrated the side of the house.

It flooded all over town, not as bad as the north side, but I was out in it all night at my post as a guard. I had to drive to work as a Tornado Warning was going out, them thinking one was headed for Ft. Smith (again). I had taken refuge in my closet, that hail was the worst I've ever heard before and I pray I never hear it again! I really thought it was a tornado and the roof was coming off my apartment. My car got dented bad but the windshields were intact Had to be divine. Had to be.

@leandar It was a bad one alright. There are still a bunch of broken windows on Garrison Ave. Thanks for watching.
