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: Anonymous employees from the Louisiana Health Department claim that leadership has instructed them not to promote COVID-19 and flu vaccines anymore. A report from NPR cites four employees who were told to cease social media posts, vaccine events, and press releases about vaccination encouragement due to a re-evaluation of messaging as the pandemic evolves. The health department did not confirm specifics but acknowledged the change in approach. Experts warn that this shift may lead to decreased vaccination rates during a time when Louisiana is experiencing high flu cases, potentially increasing illness and mortality rates. Vaccines remain available and free through various local channels.

Anonymous employees say the state health department is pulling back on telling people to get vaccinated. That’s according to a report published by NPR on Friday.
