.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 233 AM CDT Fri Jul 4 2025

Overall, dry and calm conditions are expected to prevail under
upper level ridging. With that said, summertime convection will
continue to be possible during the afternoon hours across the
portions of the state due to day time heating. By the weekend,
shortwave is expected to move into the state bringing an increase
in rain chances for most of the state.

Additionally, temperatures will begin to be on the rise again as
we head into the weekend. Currently highs will be in the 80s and
lower 90s across much of the state with feels like slight higher
around the mid to upper 90s. The hot weather returns by the
weekend with the next weather system. Heat advisories could be
posted Saturday an/or Sunday.

Satellite early this morning shows some mid and high clouds over
southern Arkansas with clear skies everywhere else. Light and
variable winds will prevail through sunrise, then light southern
flow is expected through the forecast period. VFR conditions are
expected through the period, but an isolated shower or thunderstorm
is not out of the question on Friday afternoon. At this time,
confidence is too low to place at any particular terminal.
