733 FXUS64 KLZK 021708 AFDLZK Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Little Rock AR 1208 PM CDT Sat Aug 2 2025 ...New AVIATION... .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1205 AM CDT Sat Aug 2 2025 Some lingering isolated/widely scattered SHRA are ongoing along/behind the cold front that pushed through the area the past day or so...with precip limited to far SRN/SWRN sections of the state. This activity has been triggered from weak upper level energy passing over this region of the state. Most other locations across the state remain dry as drier air continues to slowly filter south/SW this evening. Dewpts have dropped into the 60s for much of NRN and portions of central AR...while dewpts remain in the 70s across SRN/SWRN sections. While this drier air will continue to settle across the state for Sat into Sun...there will still be some lingering POPs for SRN/SWRN sections this Sat for some isolated/widely scattered convection. Otherwise...mostly dry conditions are expected this weekend. The cooler and more comfortable conditions will be seen for most areas through the weekend. Below normal temps and drier air will be common. Highs will be in the 80s...with lows Sat morning in the upper 50s to mid 60s across NRN AR...and in the upper 60s to low 70s further south. By Sun morning...lows for most areas will be in the upper 50s to mid 60s. Won`t be surprised that some sheltered locations see lows dip into the mid 50s in the valleys of the Ozarks of NRN AR. Expect mainly near or below normal highs to persist into early to middle of next week as the ridge of high pressure remains west of the region...and AR under an upper level weak trough. This trough may trigger some precip Mon into Wed during the afternoon hrs each day...but confidence and coverage should be at a minimum. Temps will gradually warm back to around or even just above normal by late next week as the upper ridge to the west attempts to expand back into the region. However...the bulk of the upper ridge looks to remain west of AR even by late next week. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1206 PM CDT Sat Aug 2 2025 Any remaining SHRA across southwest sections of the forecast area will move south of the area by 20z.
