Expected Storm Misses Northwest Arkansas
Posted: February 22, 2013 at 4:49 a.m.
Shihab Kavungathodika pokes away at a sheet of ice Thursday that remained after rolling the window down on his roomate’s vehicle outside his apartment in Bentonville. Kavungathodika and his roommates were working on de-icing the car before heading to work. Northwest Arkansas was spared the brunt of a winter storm initially forecasted to dump up to a half inch of ice across the area.
Temperatures hovered just above freezing Thursday as a steady rain fell throughout the day, dampening fears of a winter storm officials said may cause power outages and snarl traffic.
