For all of my friends in Arkansas...brace yourselves! The cold air is on the way. From the National Weather Service...
...COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON SO FAR SET TO ARRIVE...
THE COLDEST AIR OF THE FALL SEASON SO FAR IS POISED TO SPREAD OVER THE NATURAL STATE STARTING THURSDAY. THE COLD AIR WILL BE COURTESY OF AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT THAT MOVES THROUGH THE STATE.
THE FRONT WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER...THE MAIN STORY WILL BE THE COLDER AIR MOVING INTO THE STATE BEHIND IT...ALONG WITH GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS. TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY WILL STRUGGLE TO REACH 60 DEGREES ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN ARKANSAS...WHILE THE NORTHERN PART OF THE STATE WILL ONLY TOP OUT IN THE MID 50S.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT WITH CLEAR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS. THESE CONDITIONS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO DROP INTO THE 30S REGION WIDE BY MORNING. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL FLIRT WITH THE FREEZING MARK ACROSS NORTHERN ARKANSAS...AND ALSO IN THE NORMALLY COLDER AREAS SUCH AS THE ARKANSAS RIVER VALLEY. PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO PROTECT TENDER VEGETATION...AND TO ENSURE THAT OUTDOOR PETS ARE TAKEN CARE OF.
THE COOL DOWN WILL BE BRIEF WITH TEMPERATURES WARMING BACK UP ON FRIDAY. IT WILL NOT BE AS COLD SATURDAY MORNING...BUT SOME AREAS OF THE NORTH COULD STILL DROP INTO THE MID TO UPPER 30S...WITH 40S ELSEWHERE.
I'll update you on the temperatures we have here, however this morning its not cold...only 43. That will be changing by tonight when the low gets down into the 20s. It's very windy this morning.
I need to figure out some way to deal with the ever increasing number of pictures on the blog because its slowing things down. Those of you with high speed probably haven't noticed it, but on dialup, this log is very slow to load. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has to deal with this, so maybe someone can help a newbie out.
