Arkansas Storm Team Forecast: Flood Watch Expands

We may have had a brief break from the rain this evening, but more is on the way, and that's why the Flood Watch has now expanded into portions of central and western Arkansas. Through Monday evening, an additional 3 to 5 inches of rain is possible across central Arkansas, with 5 to 7 inches not out of the question for parts of the north and northeast. While the severe threat remains low, some storms could still bring gusty winds and heavy downpours. Tonight and into early Sunday morning, storms developing in Oklahoma will push into western Arkansas. On and off showers and thunderstorms are expected throughout Sunday and into Memorial Day, with brief dry periods possible in between. The Arkansas Storm Team will continue to monitor the forecast as we head into the rest of the Memorial Day weekend. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Arkansas Storm Team Weather Blog: Multiple rounds of storms expected to impact Memorial Day Weekend activities

As we head into Memorial Day Weekend, many Arkansans are looking forward to spending time outdoors. Whether it's camping, boating, or just firing up the grill. However, Mother Nature has other plans. A series of strong storms are expected to sweep across the state, especially the northern half, bringing rounds of showers and thunderstorms that could put a serious damper on outdoor activities. To be clear, it won't rain all day every day through the weekend. But storms will come in waves. The northern tier of Arkansas is under a Flood Watch, which goes through 7 p.m. Monday night. Flash flooding will be a concern, especially in low-lying areas and near rivers and streams. Avoid these areas if you plan to be camping out. In addition to the heavy rain, some of these storms could turn severe. The risk is low, but damaging wind and hail will be possible. Lightning will be a hazard with nearly every storm this weekend, which is especially concerning given the number of people expected to be outdoors. Remember, if the thunder roars… Go indoors. If you're close enough to hear thunder, you're close enough to be struck by lightning. If you do plan to get out on the water in a boat, be prepared to get back to the marina quickly if or when you hear thunder. If you plan to go camping, even though it's strongly discouraged; consider finding higher ground away from rivers and streams. With weather conditions changing quickly, it's important to have the Arkansas Storm Team App available on your phone so you can keep up with storms as they move through the area. We will be here throughout the weekend to keep you up-to-date. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
