SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward reports cool morning temperatures in the mid to lower 50s across Arkansas, with some areas in the upper 40s. Expect a gradual warming to the mid-70s by noon, reaching the upper 70s to low 80s later in the day. Dry conditions persist, with no significant weather activity in the region, though hurricane Milton strengthens to nearly Category 5, impacting Florida with life-threatening storm surges. Local areas face dry weather concerns, leading to existing burn bans. High-pressure systems are influencing temperatures and conditions, while the extended forecast suggests a return to seasonal mid to lower 80s next week.

Dry air continues to settle in behind a cold front dropping dewpoints today. Clear skies have allowed for cooler morning temperatures in the lower 50’s. High pressure will set up just to the north and keep our weather pattern dry throughout the rest of the week. This combined with the southern boundary layer will keep Hurricane Milton on its current track towards Florida with no direct threat to the ArkLaMiss. Temperatures will warm up above average over the weekend as winds become more southerly. Dewpoints will climb back up helping to mitigate the current fire threat. Another dry front will arrive next week dropping temperatures back to more seasonal.
