From time to time, someone will post a warning and ask if it's the smallest one that people have ever seen.

I have a new candidate for the prize of smallest warning. Today's is a Flash Flood Warning in northeast Arkansas, issued by WFO Memphis. It was issued for a levee breach on the Cache (pronounced "Cash") River. This is very rural country. Initially, at least, no houses were affected, and the water just spread out over farm land. Sandbagging was in progress, but reports indicated the hole in the levee was expected to get bigger.

I have pasted the watch/warning/advisory map below, but have zoomed in; you would not be able to see the warning (in dark red, SW of Jonesboro) if the map were the normal size that appears on the web.
