.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 249 PM CST Fri Jan 24 2025

High pressure is in the process of exiting to the east this
afternoon. That will result in a south/southwest wind and a
warmup through Saturday. This will be just ahead of a cold front
arriving from the Plains. The front will bring chances of
precipitation this weekend.

It will be too mild for anything but showers Saturday and Sunday,
especially over central and southern Arkansas. Rainfall is not
impressive overall, with quarter to half inch amounts in the
forecast toward the Louisiana border.

Behind the front on Sunday, the wind will shift to the northeast.
After above average temperatures on Saturday, readings will be
a little below average to close the weekend.

Zonal flow will be across much of the southern U.S. to begin the
long term period with an upper low over central California. This low
will move to near the Four Corners Region Tuesday and Wednesday
before moving south on Thursday. Southwest flow returns to Arkansas
Friday ahead of the low which will be moving into Texas.

High pressure will be over the southeast U.S. Saturday night. A cold
front will bring chances of rain for Saturday night through Sunday
night. High pressure builds into the area Monday and Tuesday. As a
result Monday and Tuesday will be dry. Another round of
precipitation is expected Tuesday night through Friday, associated

expected Thursday and Thursday night. Near normal temperatures are
