There’s a Severe Weather Risk for Arkansas on Wednesday. Hot Springs is in the “Marginal” risk which is lower than the eastern part of the state in a “Slight” risk. There is still going to be some heavy rain, thunder, lightning, and some severe weather. FutureCast is showing the bulk of the storms moving through around 11 AM to 1 PM (with some lighter rain a couple of hours earlier). The FutureCast map below is at noon Wednesday.
To make matters worse, the NWS is taking down the Little Rock Radar on Wednesday for maintenance, so we’ll all have to use other radar sites to monitor the severe weather situation. What lovely timing.
