2010 Arkansas floods
The June 2010 Arkansas floods were flash floods that killed at least 20 people near Langley, Arkansas, United States, in the early morning of June 11, 2010. Heavy, localized rainfall from six to eight inches (150–200 mm) flooded the Little Missouri and Caddo rivers, sweeping through campsites in the Ouachita National Forest.
==Cause==

The Little Missouri peaked at over near Langley, up from its ordinary level of . The floods affected camping sites around the rivers.
A flood of this size had not occurred in the area since records began in 1988. A local resident said none such had happened since May 1968, when the site "was not the popular camping spot it is today."
Warnings were issued in advance of the flooding; however, the warnings may not have been heard due to the remoteness of the affected areas.〔
