.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 208 AM CDT Sat Sep 6 2025
In the upper lvls, the digging trof positioned over the Mid-South
will eject northeastward into the Eastern region of the CONUS. A
transitions to northwesterly flow over Arkansas is expected into
early next week before an upper lvl ridge begins to build over the
region.
At the sfc, a cold front continues to slowly sag south and will be
nearing the Arkansas/Louisiana border by sunrise on Saturday. In the
wake of this FROPA will be a region of sfc high pressure that will
move into region and supply the state with temperatures of roughly 8
to 10 degrees below average compared to normals for this time of the
year which will be felt on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Into mid-
week, temperatures overall aided by a combination of east-
southeasterly winds at the sfc and the upper lvl ridge moving into
place over Arkansas will lead to efficient WAA that will place
temperatures back to seasonal normals for this time of the year.
Finally, by late-week, temperatures will continue to gradually
increase becoming a few degrees above average for this time of the
year. A concern looking ahead over the next seven days is the lack
of rain chances across the state. Arkansas will be entering a period
of warming temperatures into the workweek combined with no chances
for precipitation over at least the next week. Drought conditions
may begin to worsen if this becomes a trend.
