Fort Smith power failures affect traffic signals

— Storm winds in Fort Smith have knocked out power in parts of the city, and the damage has left some traffic signal lights not working.

Fort Smith police said Thursday that motorists should exercise caution, particularly considering the threat of heavy rainstorms from Isaac’s remnants that are expected overnight.

Police are reminding drivers that any intersection with a non-working traffic signal is to be treated as a four-way stop.
