<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Well, if you live in Arkansas, it's QUITE a big deal! We didn't get much snow in Little Rock - only a light dusting of the ground - but it's our first snowfall in a winter that has seen temperatures more like late spring!

Unfortunately, other parts of the state did get it much worse, and there were seven deaths. While some may not consider these deaths as important as soldiers', I'm sure their families are just as devastated.

And since the storm did break weather records dating back to the 1800s, I would definitely rate it as a "big deal"
