A Heat Advisory will be in effect on Sunday afternoon into Sunday evening as dangerous Heat Index values are anticipated over a decent portion of the state on Sunday.
High temperatures today are anticipated to reach into the upper 90s over a large part of the state. Temperatures will top out between to lower and upper 90s, but a location or two may reach into the triple-digits.
As heat builds across Arkansas over the next several days, it is important to remember that a closed-up vehicle can heat up quickly without AC. Beat the heat, check the backseat, and never leave people or pets unattended in a vehicle exposed to the elements.
