Tornado Watch for much of Arkansas. I’m also including the SPC Outlook Map for today (that map courtesy of AerisWeather/PWSWeather).

Most of Arkansas is under a Winter Storm Warning. Here is the latest Baron 3K Forecast model showing the timing and the accumulations for the winter storm across Arkansas. Here are also some graphics from the NWS Little Rock on how to stay safe during this winter storm.

There is a major winter storm that is likely to hit the Central US, bringing with it snow, sleet, and freezing rain. Arkansas is directly in the path of the winter storm, and I’ve been hearing differing reports from at least 6” of snow in Hot Springs to a snow/freezing rain mix.

Most of the state is under a Winter Storm Watch.

Marginal Risk of Severe Weather today. Here’s also a look at the current high-res radar.

We are under a Wind Advisory going into Sunday, but the good news is the Severe Risk has been dramatically lowered across most of Arkansas. There will be some rain and thunderstorms, but it likely will not be severe.

According to NORAD Santa Tracker, a “Santa Warning” has been issued for Arkansas. Santa has officially been spotted over Arkansas!

Merry Christmas!
