Lows across the far northern counties of Arkansas will be in the 30s with temperatures elsewhere in the 40s. A cold front will move into the state from the central Plains bringing some chances for isolated to scattered showers mainly over parts of eastern and southeast Arkansas during the morning hours.
Even with the heavy rain experienced last weekend across parts of Arkansas, widespread drought conditions continue. In fact, a large area extreme to exceptional drought (colored in red) covers a large area of the state.
We had to dig way back into the achieves for what happened on this day Arkansas weather history. Way back in 1921, a multi day winter storm event began and by the time it was finished, very heavy amounts of snow fell across parts of the state.
