Issued at 1235 AM CDT Wed Aug 13 2025 -Daily rain chances will persist through late week, providing localized relief from short term rainfall deficits. -Near normal temperatures will be seen through Wed/Thu before increasing to well above normal values for the weekend into next week. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1235 AM CDT Wed Aug 13 2025 Main interest in the short term revolves around the slow moving H500 trough progressing east across the region. This feature has kept and will continue to keep ridging at bay to the SE and SW. As several disturbances lift northeast through the trough, isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop especially during the afternoon/evening hours. Some precip may persist into the overnight hours as lingering/remnant boundaries aid in precip longevity. With the overall flow remaining light and PW values in the 1.50-2.00 inch range or higher, some locally heavy downpours can be expected. Coverage overall should remain limited, which will do little to improve shortfall rainfall deficits. But, some areas will receive locally beneficial rainfall. By late week into the weekend, the mid-level trough will be well east of the region. In its wake, H500 ridging will become reestablished across much of the central/southern US. This will allow temperatures to climb and rain chances to decrease across Arkansas and surrounding areas. && .AVIATION...
