Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week saw major rainfall from Hurricane Laura and a mix of warm and cooler temperatures to the Natural State. I posted a midweek update on Laura on my Twitter on Wednesday. While Laura brought plenty of damage and devastation to the region and even to Arkansas, the good news is by the time it arrived here, it substantially weakened. We received some heavy rain and wind out of it and had a few-minute Internet outage, but no major power or long-term Internet outages. The only bad news is my weather station’s rain gauge was clogged, but at least my CoCoRaHS rain gauge worked! Here’s a look at the rain totals from my CoCoRaHS rain gauge in Hot Springs Arkansas, over the past week, as well as temperatures from my Earth Networks weather station over the past week.
Here’s a look at the current Arkansas radar showing storms across the state, as well as a look at current temperatures across the state from both NWS and Earth Networks weather stations (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 (image courtesy of the Earth Networks Broadcast System).
Finally, here’s a look at the seven-day extended forecast for Hot Springs. Another rainy week in store!
That wraps it up here! Nathan Parker signing off.
