City of Siloam Springs crews are working to clean up storm damage and restore power across the area, according to a Facebook post. Residents are asked to stay home for their safety and to avoid interfering with recovery efforts.
Brashears Road between N. Lincoln and Country Club Road is closed due to multiple snapped power poles and is unsafe for travel.
Power is expected to be fully restored within two to three hours, as of 8:45 p.m. on May 18.
'Old Hwy 68 is closed on either end due to down power lines and trees. The only access routes to Old Hwy 68 are from Robinson Road off Hwy 412 or from Logan Road. Please refer to the Benton County Unincorporated Road Closures map to view where the closures are located,' a Benton County spokesperson said in a best way to stay updated when there's a severe weather threat is to download YOUR Weather Authority App.
