.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 215 PM CDT Tue May 6 2025

To begin the period, a low pressure system continues to move into
the area bringing with it the chance for showers and thunderstorms.
Additionally, an unsettled weather pattern is expected through much
of the period with on and off rainfall chances across the state.

As mentioned above, a system has tracked into the state bringing the
chance for showers and thunderstorms. The main takeaway from this
forecast package compared to previous ones is the model trends
towards lesser amounts of QPF across portions of Arkansas. It now
appears the heaviest of the rain could remain south of the state
into Louisiana. Regardless, one to two inches of QPF will still be
possible for southern locations with lesser amounts as you move
north.

Severe weather chances appear low at this time although some gusty
winds and small hail cannot be ruled out. The main concern continues
to be the threat for isolated flash flooding across southern
locations.

Temperatures are expected to average through the period with high
temperatures in the mid 60 to upper 70s. Overnight low temperatures
are expected to drop into the upper 40s to lower 60s.
