.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT

CONVECTION HAS INCREASED ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL ARKANSAS IN THE LAST
HOUR...AS WEAK DISTURBANCE MOVES ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI AND
NORTHERN ARKANSAS AHEAD OF SURFACE COLD FRONT. SOME SMALL HAIL IS
POSSIBLE WITH THIS ACTIVITY...BUT NOT EXPECTING SEVERE CRITERIA TO
BE MET EARLY THIS MORNING.

ATTENTION WILL TURN TO THE COLD FRONT CURRENTLY NORTH OF INTERSTATE
44 IN OKLAHOMA AND MISSOURI. AS SURFACE LOW MOVES INTO THE GREAT
LAKE REGION TODAY...THE PROGRESSION OF THE FRONT WILL SLOW
DOWN...AND KEEP RAIN CHANCES OVER MUCH OF THE STATE TODAY. THE
HIGHEST RAIN CHANCES WILL BE ACROSS THE NORTH AND EAST...AS UPPER
ENERGY WILL ALLOW THE BEST LIFT ACROSS THESE AREAS.

THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE STORMS ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA
TODAY. WHILE WEAK WIND SHEAR WILL PRECLUDE A TORNADO
RISK...DOWNBURST WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE DUE TO
INSTABILITY LEVELS AND HIGH DEWPOINTS/MOISTURE AMOUNTS ACROSS THE
AREA.

EVEN WITH THE SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS...RAINFALL AMOUNTS
WILL GENERALLY REMAIN UNDER AN INCH...WITH THE HIGHEST TOTALS ACROSS
THE EAST.

AS THE SURFACE LOW CONTINUES TO MOVE OFF TO THE NORTHEAST...THE
FRONT WILL STALL ACROSS SOUTHERN ARKANSAS TONIGHT...WITH RAIN
CHANCES CONTINUING INTO TUESDAY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE
STATE.

COOLER AIR COURTESY OF CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE WILL FOLLOW THE
FRONT...WITH TEMPERATURES RETURNING TO NEAR NORMAL READINGS FOR
TUESDAY AND BEYOND. HIGHS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE 70S...WITH LOWS
IN THE UPPER 40S AND 50S.
&&

.LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE OVER THE STATE ON FRIDAY AND BRING DRY WEATHER
AND CLOSER TO NORMAL TEMPERATURES TO THE STATE. LATE ON SATURDAY A
COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO SAG INTO THE STATE AND BRING A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. ON SUNDAY THE FRONT SHOULD SLIP
A BIT MORE SOUTH WHERE ANY CONVECTION WOULD BE FOCUSED. UNCERTAINTY
REMAINS IN THE MODELS AND THIS FORECAST MAY BE ADJUSTED.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE MUCH CLOSER TO NORMAL IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST.
&&

.LZK WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
