Department of Emergency Management weather report


Showers and thunderstorms will begin to affect western Arkansas by late Saturday afternoon, but the major effect of the next weather system will come Saturday night into Sunday.

Most of the severe weather with this system will occur to the south of Arkansas.  However, there will be some chance for isolated severe storms over the southern third of Arkansas on Sunday afternoon.

South of a line from Mena to West Memphis, rainfall amounts should average 1 1/4 to 2 1/2 inches.  There could be some locally heavier amounts, especially in southeast Arkansas.  Elsewhere, rainfall amounts of 1/2 to 1 inch will be common.
