.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 201 AM CDT Wed Oct 8 2025
WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY:
The beginning of the forecast period across the Natural State will
begin by being characterized by a drier and cooler airmass in the
wake of the FROPA on Tuesday (yesterday). Surface high pressure
centered over the Great Lakes region of the CONUS will lead to
northeasterly flow across Arkansas which will usher in a continued
stream of cooler and drier air into the region. In the upper lvls,
elongated ridging will be present over the Southeastern region of
the CONUS extending westward over the Southern Plains region of the
CONUS, this includes over Arkansas which will lead to nearly zonal
flow. Expect a period of temperatures that will be average for this
time of the year to a few degrees below normal across the state. Low
temperatures on Friday morning will fall into the low to mid 40s
across portions of north-central Arkansas and the higher terrain of
western Arkansas.
SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY:
Into the weekend, the surface high pressure will shift eastward and
allow a return to southerly and southeasterly flow across Arkansas.
In response, temperatures will begin to uptick overall and by
beginning of the next workweek will be 5 to 10 degrees above average
for this time of the year. An upper lvl ridge will be centered over
the ARK-LA-TEX region of the CONUS and nearly zonal flow will be
noted over Arkansas which will keep dry and warming conditions
present for the remainder of the forecast period. Expect a
continuation of dry and fair weather conditions with overall warming
temperatures.
