Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Little Rock AR 1215 PM CST Fri Feb 25 2022 .AVIATION...Updated w/ a discussion for the 25/18Z TAFs SCT TO BKN low-lvl cloud cover including some CU remain present across the S/Ern half of the FA Fri afternoon, w/ OVC condns noted over far S/E AR. CIGs wl vary through the PD, w/ some mixed MVFR condns at Cntrl and Srn terminals through the evening, before low-lvl cloud cover builds back in across Wrn and N/Wrn AR late Fri night. MVFR CIGs are expected to prevail at most terminals through Fri night and into Sat, w/ some low end potential for -FZDZ across Srn AR, and have added PROB30 groups accordingly. /232/ && PREV DISCUSSION...(ISSUED 333 AM CST Fri Feb 25 2022) SHORT TERM...Today Through Sunday FRIDAY: The sun will return to begin the forecast period during the day on Friday as High Pressure at the surface promotes clearing skies throughout the day. Temperatures will not rebound too much, especially in locations that saw sleet accumulation. Statewide high temperatures will range from the lower 30's to lower 40's. However, chances for precipitation will increase as we delve into the weekend. SATURDAY: Upper level flow will promote ascent, especially at 500mb across the ARK-LA-TEX region as this area will overlaid by a right entrance region to a respectable 500mb jet. Precipitation in the form of light freezing drizzle/light freezing rain/light rain will all be possible into the early morning hours across southern portions of the state. By noon on Saturday, temperatures will warm across the state to values that will be above freezing in the regions of precipitation across southern Arkansas, thus shifting the main precipitation type to liquid rain. Into the afternoon/evening time-frame a light shield of rain will begin to overspread the state. Rain will remain the dominant precipitation type across the state on Saturday afternoon. SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY: Later Saturday evening/into Saturday night temperatures will begin to drop across the state. Locations across the northern portion of the state and the higher terrain of the Boston, Ozark, and Ouachita mountain ranges could see a changeover to light sleet/light freezing rain/light snow. However, no significant accumulations are expected. Later into the evening and closing in on midnight Sunday areas along and north of the I-40 corridor could expect light freezing rain and light sleet as the precipitation is quickly ushered southeastward. The pre-dawn hours on Sunday would be the greatest opportunity for wintry precipitation in the Little Rock metro area. Accumulations will be none to possibly a light trace amount of freezing rain that will need to be met with caution as you travel Sunday morning. The main problem areas would be reserved to elevated surfaces such as bridges and overpasses on your Sunday morning commute. During the day on Sunday, temperatures will warm and any wintry precipitation that has fallen should melt rather quickly. This potential winter weather event would have minimal impacts and be reserved to the early morning hours on Sunday, especially before dawn. LONG TERM...Sunday Night Through Thursday Calm weather conditions are anticipated through the long term portion of the forecast, which is quite the opposite of what has been observed across the state recently. H500 flow will be nwrly to zonal across the region with sfc ridging overhead initially, then shifting to the east with time. Temperatures will generally warm through the period with several days of highs in the 60s/70s. Overnight lows will be cool initially, but will also follow a warming trend through late week. Some precip may await the region shortly after the end of the period but have not included any POPs through Thursday. && .LZK Watches/Warnings/Advisories...NONE. && Aviation...232
