SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward reports a quiet weather start, with persistent cloud cover due to the remnants of post-tropical Cyclone Francine, lingering over Northern Arkansas. No rainfall is expected, but moisture remains in the air. Temperatures are in the mid-60s, with a slight warm-up anticipated in the afternoon, reaching the mid-80s in some areas. However, regions like Greenville and Camden may stay in the mid-70s due to cloud cover. Limited rain chances continue into the weekend, with skies clearing slightly by Monday. A developing tropical depression in the Atlantic may not significantly strengthen. Enjoy pleasant football weather tonight, with mid-70s expected.

Clouds will linger this morning as the remnants of Francine hovers just to our north. Drier air will mix in for areas south of I-20 to see clouds break apart and a chance to see some sunshine. This will also warm temperatures up this afternoon to the mid 80’s. Other places in like in south Arkansas may stay cloudy thanks to post tropical cyclone Francine. Francine and another disturbance out west will contribute to minor rain chances this weekend. Most of any showers will stay spotty and isolated through Sunday and Monday. Clouds will also linger before clearing out by the middle of next week as we begin a warming trend that could reach back to the lower 90’s by next Friday.

SUMMARY: Bear County law enforcement agencies express concern over a new booking policy by Sheriff Javier Salazar, which delays jail intake for suspects requiring medical screening. The directive, aimed at addressing jail deaths, mandates that suspects detoxing from substances or with serious medical conditions must be evaluated at a hospital before booking. This has led to significant delays and complications for officers, with reports of suspects being released instead of booked. Smaller agencies worry that the policy jeopardizes public safety. Despite the concerns raised, Sheriff Salazar maintains that the policy is necessary to improve health outcomes for detainees.

Several area law enforcement agencies said a new directive from Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar puts public safety at risk.
