SHORT TERM
(Today through Monday Night)
Issued at 258 AM CDT Sun Jun 2 2024
Guidance continues to show a rather quiet albeit very warm Sunday is in store for the forecast area. Surface observations are showing some fog development ongoing across parts of the state but very patchy in nature at this time. Temperature/dew point spreads continue to support additional development of fog this morning and have included it for a few hours for a large part of the area.
Otherwise, weak ridging in the nations mid section will provide warm and humid conditions today with high temperatures in the 80s to lower 90s. Even diurnally driven convection will be difficult to come by and opted to leave it out of the forecast but I would not be surprised if a storm or two popped off in this environment.
Guidance does continue to show an overall progressive pattern with another shortwave trough coming in tonight and crossing the state Monday for additional precipitation chances. Another, stronger wave with MCS characteristics, will move through Monday night and while it looks to impact mainly the north, it could generate some locally heavy rain. Temperatures Monday will be similar to what will be seen on Sunday.
LONG TERM
(Tuesday through Saturday)
Issued at 258 AM CDT Sun Jun 2 2024
The long-term forecast period including the upcoming workweek into early next weekend will be plagued by an unsettled pattern which will keep POPs in forecast for each day to an extent, but each day will not be a washout by any means. Upper lvl northwesterly flow and a series of SWTs within the flow pattern will approach and move over Arkansas. An upper ridge will build across the Southwestern region of the CONUS keeping the stream of northwesterly flow positioned to traverse over the Natural State throughout the period.
At the sfc, a cold front will be nearing the Arkansas/Missouri border Tuesday night into the day on Wednesday. On Thursday, the boundary becomes stationary positioned across northern Arkansas before pushing through the state on Friday. On Saturday, you guessed it, another cold front approaches Arkansas from the north. At the sfc, similar to the upper lvls we will see a progressive pattern of rain and isolated thunderstorm chances. It is to reiterated or repeated that this will not be a five day washout, but rain/storms will be possible each day across the CWA
In regard to temperatures with respect to both low and high temperatures will be near to slightly above average compared to climatological normals for this time of the year.

Observations indicate MVFR to IFR conditions prevail at some terminals this morning. VFR conditions are expected to return by mid morning and prevail through the remainder of the period. VCTS was added to KHOT and KADF late as an upper level disturbance approaches the region. Winds will generally be light and from the southeast.
