ARKANSAS — A warm, humid, and breezy Sunday is underway across Arkansas with temperatures pushing easily into the upper 80s and low 90s statewide this afternoon. Moisture is filling in across the region creating humid conditions from north to south, while winds gust up to 20 mph through the day. Spotty storm chances exist through the afternoon, with a more focused evening storm threat possible for western Arkansas if storms develop to the west tonight.
Texarkana Leads at 91 Degrees as Upper 80s Dominate Statewide
Texarkana tops the state at 91 degrees Sunday while Jonesboro and Searcy reach 89 degrees across the northeast corridor. Fort Smith climbs to 88 while El Dorado, Stuttgart, Helena, Wynne, and Lake Village all sit in the upper 80s through the afternoon.
Central Arkansas including Little Rock reaches 86 degrees with Hot Springs and Arkadelphia sitting in the mid 80s, keeping virtually every community in the state well into summer-like territory today.
Spotty Scattered Storm Chances Through the Day With Most Areas Staying Dry
Spotty and scattered rain and storm chances exist across Arkansas through Sunday afternoon, but the majority of residents are expected to stay dry. These chances are hit-or-miss in nature with no widespread organized storm activity expected during the daytime hours.
Winds gusting up to 20 mph will make the humid heat feel more manageable through the afternoon despite the warm temperatures statewide.
Western Arkansas Could See Evening Storms if Activity Develops to the West Tonight
The biggest weather question Sunday involves whether storms forming west of Arkansas this evening could push into the western sections of the state overnight. This remains a wait-and-see situation as confidence in evening storm development is limited heading into Sunday night.
Residents across western Arkansas should monitor updated forecasts through the afternoon and keep weather alerts active heading into the evening hours. Stay with NapervilleLocal.com for the latest weather updates and local forecast coverage.
