Natural Hazard Profile: Alleene, Arkansas
Located in the interior eastern United States in Little River County, Alleene is a small unincorporated community. The humid subtropical climate that characterizes this part of Arkansas — marked by hot, humid summers and frequent severe thunderstorm activity — directly influences the types and severity of natural hazards present, making Alleene a community where hazard awareness has real practical value.
Alleene's overall natural disaster risk is rated 5.8/10 (Moderate) by FEMA's National Risk Index. The area faces significant ice storm exposure, where the thermal profile of the atmosphere during winter storms frequently delivers freezing rain rather than snow. Secondary hazards include lightning and drought.
Relative to other U.S. communities, Alleene's natural disaster risk is above the U.S. national average of 4.5/10, slightly below the 6.2/10 state average. The hazard distribution here is led by ice storm and lightning, as measured by FEMA across Little River County. While city-specific sub-county variation exists, these scores represent the best available federal risk estimate.
With a moderate risk rating, Alleene residents are well-served by maintaining standard preparedness practices — an emergency supply kit, awareness of local hazard seasonality, and insurance that covers the top local risks. Periodic review of coverage for ice storm is recommended.
What this means for Alleene: Ice Storm preparedness
- Keep walkways treated and avoid travel during freezing-rain events.
