Hazardous Weather Outlook For PIKE County,AR
458 AM CDT Thu Apr 25 2024
DAY ONE Today and Tonight
Shower and thunderstorm chances will continue to increase over
much of Arkansas today as a warm front begins to lift northward
across the region. A few of the stronger storms could produce hail
up to the size of quarters, but organized severe weather is not
expected. Heavy downpours could result in localized flooding. Rain
chances will diminish for most areas late tonight as the surface
boundary eventually lifts north of the state.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN Friday through Wednesday
Additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms will impact the area
through the upcoming weekend and into early next week. All modes of
severe weather will be possible, but there remains some uncertainty
regarding the overall timing and extent of the activity. Locally heavy
rainfall will become an increasing concern heading into the weekend
as well, along with the potential for localized flash flooding.
Spotter Information Statement
Spotter activation is not expected through tonight.
