WITH DRY CONDITIONS PERSISTING THROUGH THE ENTIRE DURATION OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD FROM TODAY (MONDAY) THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THIS
FORECAST IS A HIGH CONFIDENCE FORECAST WITH THE GFS, ECMWF, AND NAM

WHICH WILL BE THE HARBINGER OF WEATHER CONDITIONS ACROSS ARKANSAS
OVER THE FORECAST PERIOD.
MONDAY/TUESDAY:
A PROMINENT UPPER LVL TROF IS SITUATED OVER THE EASTERN REGION OF
THE CONUS. AS A RESULT, NORTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL SETUP OVER ARKANSAS
WHICH WILL PROMOTE COOL AND DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS THE STATE. AT THE
SFC, A CENTER OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL MEANDER ACROSS THE REGION AND
ASSIST IN KEEPING TEMPERATURES 5 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW AVERAGE
COMPARED TO NORMALS FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.
WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY/FRIDAY/SATURDAY/SUNDAY:
BY MID-WEEK, THE TROF POSITIONED OVER THE EASTERN REGION OF THE
CONUS WILL LIFT NORTHEASTWARD, RESULTING IN A SIGNIFICANT PATTERN
SHIFT. AN UPPER LVL RIDGE WILL BUILD EASTWARD FROM OVER THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS REGION OF THE CONUS EXTENDING OVER THE MID-SOUTH REGION OF
THE CONUS WHICH WILL POSITION THE RIDGE OVER ARKANSAS. THE RIDGE
WILL EFFECTIVELY SHUTOFF THE INFLUX OF COOL AIR AND LEAD TO A PERIOD
OF SUBSIDENCE AND COMPRESSIONAL HEATING LEADING TO A GRADUAL RISE IN
TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE STATE. TEMPERATURES OVERALL BY MID-WEEK WILL
BE NEAR AVERAGE TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE AVERAGE BY 5 TO 8 DEGREES,
ESPECIALLY TRANSITIONING INTO LATE WEEK AND INTO THE WEEKEND.
INTO LATE-WEEK AND THE WEEKEND, THE UPPER LVL RIDGE OVER THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS AND EXTENDING INTO THE MID-SOUTH REGIONS OF THE
CONUS WILL BE FLANKED BY TWO UPPER LVL DIGGING TROFS. THE POSITION
OF THE UPPER LVL TROFS WITH THEIR PRONOUNCED UPPER LVL LOW PRESSURE
CENTERS WILL BE OVER THE WESTERN AND EASTERN REGIONS OF THE CONUS.
THE PRESENCE OF THIS UPPER LVL PATTERN CONFIGURATION IS KNOW AS AN
OMEGA BLOCK WHICH WILL RESULT IN A STAGNANT PATTERN THAT WILL LOCK IN
THE WARM AND DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS ARKANSAS.
