.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 315 AM CDT Thu Sep 25 2025
The overall weather pattern is turning much quieter, as the main
low circulation that brought multiple rounds of rain over the last
few days across Arkansas is lifting north and east of the state.
Some residual showery activity is remaining mostly across
southeastern Missouri early this morning, but another mid-level
wave swinging across the state today will promote some isolated to
scattered showers and thunderstorms, favoring eastern Arkansas
mainly this afternoon. Temperatures this afternoon will range from
the 70s and 80s across lower elevations and 60s to 70s across
higher elevations of Arkansas, which is several degrees below
normal.
Mid-level troughing will continue to deepen across the
southeastern United States through the rest of this week, but the
favorable dynamics will remain east of the state, promoting a
warming and drying trend going into and through this weekend as
high pressure begins to build in from the west. High pressure
will persist across the region into early next week, with a
persistent amplified ridge aloft remaining mostly stationary
across the Midwest during this period. The longer term outlook
through the middle of next week is pretty good agreement on
ridging remaining anchored across the eastern half of the U.S.,
which would prolong generally dry and warm conditions across the
state.
