Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week saw a little disappointment in terms of the rain event for us. We got a little rain out of the event, but not as much as I thought we would. Some parts of the state did receive more rain, and there’s still a few areal flood warnings into effect. Here’s a look at the rainfall I received this past week on my CoCoRaHS rain gauge, as well as a look at temperatures this past week on my Earth Networks weather station in Hot Springs.

Here’s a look at the current conditions on my Earth Networks weather station in Hot Springs, as well as temperatures across the state this evening (both NWS and Earth Networks weather stations). Here’s also a look at the current high-res radar showing showers across the state with some storms out in Oklahoma. Beautiful view on my Earth Networks HD Camera in Hot Springs earlier today!

Here’s a look at the seven-day extended forecast for Hot Springs. A few additional chances of rain this week, but the showers seem not overly intense for Easter Sunday.

Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up and have a Happy St. Patrick’s Day! This week brought a warm up to the Natural State reminding us that Spring and Summer are around the corner! We also saw a few sprinkles of rain this week, but not much. Take a look at this week’s past temperatures on my Earth Networks weather station here in Hot Springs, as well as a look at the few sprinkles of rain we received on my CoCoRaHS rain gauge in Hot Springs.

Here’s a look at current conditions on my Earth Networks weather station in Hot Springs, as well as a look at current temperatures across the state this evening (both NWS and Earth Networks weather stations). Here’s also a look at the current high-res radar for Arkansas and the FutureScan radar for 11:00 PM, plus a look at the Earth Networks PulseRad lightning intensity (not traditional radar) and lightning near Arkansas (maps courtesy of Baron Threat Net and Earth Networks Sferic Maps). Here’s also a look at my Earth Networks HD weather cam in Hot Springs from earlier today.

The Natural State could see another round of storms move through tomorrow, which I’ll be monitoring and tracking on my Twitter. The Baron forecast model shows the storms moving into Hot Springs around 4PM. The WSI RPM model shifts them to the west a little around that time, with the NAM 3K keeping them still in Oklahoma. The HRRR is only going out to 3PM at the moment, but it’s showing the storms moving into Hot Springs around 3PM (some maps courtesy of Tropical Tidbits and AllisonHouse Maps).

Here’s a look at the rainfall accumulations for midnight Monday for the Baron and WSI RPM models. The GFS and NAM 3K are for 1AM Monday.

Here’s a look at the seven day extended forecast for Hot Springs. Expect high temperatures mostly in the 60’s to 70’s with increasing rain chances as we get into next weekend.

For those who want to know the story behind St. Patrick’s Day, check out a biographical sketch I prepared on St. Patrick over at another blog I contribute to.

Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week saw beautiful weather and finally mostly a break from the rainfall (only a little fell this week). It’s beginning to feel like Spring across Arkansas, and parts of the week were also extremely windy. Today saw a round of severe weather in parts of the state, although Hot Springs missed the brunt of the severe weather event. Here’s a look at the temperatures this past week from my Earth Networks weather station in Hot Springs, as well as a look at what little rain we received on my CoCoRaHS rain gauge this week.

Here’s a look at the current high-res radar across Arkansas, as well as a look at the 1 Hr FutureScan radar showing the severe weather situation across the state. Here’s also a look at the Severe Threats map for SW Arkansas showing flooding, hail, and wind shear potentials. Additionally, here’s a look at the damaging wind paths across Arkansas over the past 30 minutes. Here’s also a statewide look at lightning and PulseRad lightning intensity (not traditional radar) with purple polygons indicating an Earth Networks Dangerous Thunderstorm Alert (maps courtesy of Baron Threat Net and Earth Networks Sferic Maps).

Here’s a look at the current conditions from my Earth Networks weather station in Hot Springs, as well as a look at temperatures across the state this evening (both NWS and Earth Networks weather stations).

Here’s a look at the seven day extended forecast for Hot Springs. Expect high temperatures to increase from the 50’s to 70’s with partly coudy to mostly clear skies with rain chances increasing when we get to next weekend.

Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week saw a return of rain to the Natural State from Tuesday through parts of Thursday. The rain cleared up, however, and we saw some beautiful weather Thursday afternoon through the weekend. Temperatures also remained in the mid to upper 60’s to lower 70’s through most of the week, letting us know that Spring is on the way! Here’s a look at rain gauge totals from my CoCoRaHS rain gauge this week, as well as temperatures this past week from my Earth Networks weather station.

Here’s a look at the current conditions from my Earth Networks weather station, as well as a look at temperatures across the state this evening from both NWS and Earth Networks weather stations. All clear tonight on radar, so no need to worry about rain! (Maps courtesy of Baron Threat Net and Earth Networks Sferic Maps).

Here’s a look at the seven day extended forecast for Arkansas. Chances of rain for Sunday, Friday, and Saturday, although the amount of rain for Sunday is light enough where it’s not even worth showing a model map of it. High temperatures will be in the 50’s-60’s.
