.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Thursday Night)
Issued at 322 AM CDT Wed Apr 9 2025

Quiet wx conds were noted acrs the Mid South early this mrng, thanks
to a sfc ridge aligned along the MS River. Along the wrn periphery
of the ridge, a warm front was situated near the AR/OK border. With
light winds and generally clear skies, predawn temps ranged fm the
upper 30s to the upper 40s, with some lower 50s noted over far
northwest AR.

After a cool start to the day, south winds wl return to the FA later
today as the aforementioned sfc ridge moves off the east. This wl
allow the warm fnt to lift quickly back to the north as well. Highs
this aftn wl top out in the upper 60s to the mid 70s.

A northwest mid level flow wl bring a weak SWT, and assocd CDFNT,
into northwest AR early tngt. The front wl tend to stall out
overnight. Meanwhile, a stronger SWT wl drop southeastward thru
the region Thu aftn and evening, bringing small chcs (20-30%) of
showers/storms to mainly northeast AR.

Cannot rule out a few strong or severe storms Thu aftn. Large hail
wl be the main threat as mid lvl lapse rates steepen durg the aftn
hrs, as high temps climb into the 70s. Rainfall amounts wl be less
than 1/4 inch, which is not expected to impact the ongoing river
flooding.

Drier and cooler conditions return Thu ngt following the passage
of the CDFNT. Clouds wl decrease overnight, with low temps falling
into the 40s by early Fri mrng.

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Tuesday)
Issued at 322 AM CDT Wed Apr 9 2025

Cooler and dry conditions are expected at the start of the long term
period behind the cold front that will move through the state on
Thu. NW flow aloft and NRLY SFC flow will be seen on Fri in the wake
of this system...but SFC high pressure will slide east for
Sat...with SRLY flow returning. Warmer conditions will then be seen
by late this weekend as SRLY SFC flow intensifies...and upper level
riding develops over the region. A dry forecast will continue into
early next week...along with warmer conditions. Chances for rainfall
look to return just at the end of this forecast as a new front moves
into the state from the NW on Mon night into Tue.
