Here is a regional radar view.

Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected through the weekend. The forecast calls for one to more than two inches of rain in Arkansas, with the highest amounts in southern sections of the state.

The latest drought monitor has been issued and there is not a lot of difference from what we were looking at last week.

On this day in 2008, fourteen tornadoes were spawned. One of the tornadoes tracked from Birdtown (Conway Co) to just north of Damascus (Van Buren Co) to Greer's Ferry (Cleburne Co), and claimed the lives of 5 people. In total, 7 lives were lost from these storms.

Heavy rain fell from April 30th to May 3rd, 2011. This led to flash flooding and helped contribute to a major flood event in May across Arkansas.

The National Weather Service will be teaching both basic and advanced spotter training this Saturday, May 4th, in Ash Flat. Come Join us. Its free to all.
