High temperatures on Tuesday will vary greatly from one corner of the state to the other. Look for temperatures to top out anywhere from the lower 40s to the lower 60s.
Our next chance for rainfall across the state will be Friday afternoon through Saturday night as a cold front approaches the state. Severe weather is not expected, however, heavy rainfall will be possible. One to two inches of rain will be possible across central and southern Arkansas with lesser amounts across the north.
The graphic above shows the total percent of snow coverage across the United States over the past 20 years. Christmas Day of 2009 had the most snow coverage at 63% while 2023 had the least snow coverage at 18%.
Tornadoes can and have occurred during the month of December. If you don't believe me, we can just look back on this date in 1949 when tornadoes moved across several Arkansas counties.
