The Severe Risk for Monday has been upgraded to Enhanced for Central Arkansas. I’ll continue to monitor the severe weather and post any updates here.

Today we’ll continue to see some rain. We’ll likely see some severe weather on Monday as well. As conditions worsen, I’ll update here.

There’s a potential for some severe weather on Arkansas for Thursday. If conditions worsen, I’ll update here.

Here’s the Baron Forecast Model showing potential ice in Hot Springs 4AM Monday. Here’s also a look at the future snow and sleet accumulations for Arkansas. I’ll continue to monitor the situation. Merry Christmas!

Santa Claus is on his way to Arkansas!

With the exception of part of Northern Arkansas, most of the state already received their “White Christmas” early, and it looks like no new snow will arrive on Christmas.

It’s snowing in Hot Springs!

It’s freezing cold out there today, and only going to get colder! Stay warm!

Central Arkansas is under a Wind Chill Advisory for the upcoming Winter Weather event this Christmas Week. So far, the (Baron) weather forecast model is showing the bulk of the wintry precipitation will miss Hot Springs (although it could still spit a little frozen precipitation our way). The rain/snow/ice/sleet/freezing rain accumulations seem to miss Central Arkansas for anything that would be measurable. Road conditions forecast show slippery roads for Hot Springs at times, but the bulk of the freezing stuff missing us. Here’s a look at some graphics to show what to expect with this Winter Weather event.

Here are a few graphics on the upcoming deep freeze across the country this week that show wind chill and snow chances. It looks like Central Arkansas is in for some potential ice or wintry mix. I’m going to post another update tomorrow once the weather forecast models have updated so I can give you a better picture at what to expect in Arkansas. Stay safe, stay warm, and avoid travel later this week if possible until the roads thaw out!
