IN THE UPPER LVLS, BETWEEN TODAY (MONDAY) AND THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF
THE WEEK, AN ELONGATED REGION OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE NOTED OVER
THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND GREAT LAKES REGIONS OF THE CONUS.
CONSEQUENTLY, FROM THE PLACEMENT OF THE ELONGATED REGION OF THE
UPPER LVL HIGH PRESSURE WILL RESULT IN AN UPPER LVL LOW PRESSURE
CENTER TO RETROGRADE WESTWARD FROM OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER
VALLEY REGION OF THE CONUS TO OVER TEXAS. THE UPPER LVL HIGH
PRESSURE FEATURE BEGINS TO BREAK DOWN LATER INTO THE WEEK AND
WEEKEND TRANSITIONING INTO A BROAD, BUT INTENSE REGION OF RIDGING
OVER THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL REGIONS OF THE CONUS WITH ARKANSAS ON
THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE UPPER LVL RIDGE.
AT THE SFC, TODAY (MONDAY), A STATIONARY BOUNDARY WILL BE FIXATED
ALONG THE ARKANSAS/LOUISIANA BORDER WHICH WILL EQUATE TO INCREASED
POP CHANCES TO REMAIN FOR SOUTHERN ARKANSAS. INTO TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY, WIDESPREAD POP CHANCES WILL BECOME ELEVATED ACROSS THE
ENTIRE STATE AS THE STATIONARY FRONT BEGINS TO LIFT NORTHWARD AS A
WARM FRONT OVER THIS TWO-DAY PERIOD. INTO LATE WEEK AND THE WEEKEND,
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE REGION IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO
ARKANSAS WHICH WILL ASSIST IN KEEPING POP CHANCES SUPPRESSED OVER
THIS PERIOD.
