History
The original settlement at Trumann was a logging camp known as Mosher. Subsequently, farms sprung up as the timber was cleared and the wetlands were drained. In 1902 the name was changed to Weona. In 1917 the town was incorporated under the name Trumann.
On June 5, 2014, a derecho passed the through the town, causing extensive damage to trees and power lines. The estimated wind gust at the time of the storm was between 80 and 85 mph, with sustained winds of 75 mph.
On December 10, 2021, a tornado came through the town causing damage. It was part of a tornado outbreak that spawned multiple tornados in Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee and Illinois that same evening.
