Forecasted max and min temperatures, heat index, and precipitation forecast over the next week are shown across varies Arkansas cities. The key takeaway is the elevated precipitation chances today into tonight, then the lack of chances after Thursday. The heat and humidity really builds in by the weekend into early next week.
Afternoon highs across Arkansas will range from the mid to upper 80s. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible again today across the state. Lows tonight should range from the upper 60s to lower 70s.
Latest probabilistic data indicates a decent chance that northwestern and northern half of Arkansas could pick up a half inch of rainfall. A few exceptions to the rule may be possible within a few stronger scattered showers and thunderstorms, but several locations will be favored to pick more than one inch mainly across northwest and northern half of Arkansas
Looking ahead to temperatures from July 19th through July 27th, the theme remains a likely chance of above normal temperatures compared to normal values across Arkansas for middle to late July.
For the 6-14 day period looking ahead, the precipitation outlook across Arkansas is expected to remain near normal for middle into late July.
Upper-level high pressure (H) will build into the region over the coming days. Once this takes place, temperatures will climb well into the mid and upper 90s. Heat index values may range from 100 to 110 degrees.
