Morning Forecast – Wednesday, Oct. 9th
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward reports clear and cool conditions this morning, with temperatures in the mid to lower 50s and some upper 40s in southern Arkansas. A jacket is advisable for outdoor activities. By this afternoon, highs will reach the mid 80s, continuing a warming trend into the weekend. In Florida, Hurricane Milton has intensified to Category 5 and is expected to make landfall south of Tampa tonight, with severe storm surges and winds impacting the area. Locally, dry conditions persist, contributing to ongoing drought, though a possible shift in winds may alleviate some fire hazards by weekend.
A dry airmass remains in place across the ArkLaMiss and will stay in place at least through Friday. By saturday, winds will begin to shift southerly allowing for dewpoints to climb. This will in turn help with the current fire threat due to the very dry conditions. Milton will track east and make landfall in Florida tonight and track eastward into the Atlantic. Our weather pattern changes next week in regard to temperatures. A dry front will arrive Monday dropping temperatures to the mid and lower 70’s for daytime highs by the late part of next week.
