Strong thunderstorms moved through eastern Oklahoma and western Arkansas early this morning producing a rain-wrapped tornado around Cincinnati, Arkansas. The Director of Emergency Management in Washington County has confirmed that there have been at least three deaths with extensive damage around the region. The Fayetteville Airport has also closed due to debris from the tornado on the runways. We're also getting reports of extensive damage just a few miles west of there in Westville, OK where heavy damage has been reported. No word yet on any fatalities or injuries.
