The Race is On



As the storm system kicks out of the Panhandle area tonight, it is looking very similar to the one last Friday in which we will have more wind energy (helicity) and too little instability (CAPE) to produce a widespread severe weather outbreak here in Arkansas. We still cannot let our guard down though. We are still under a slight risk for severe storms.


But the folks further to the east in Dixie Alley will not fair as well. The storms will arrive there at the peak of daytime heating and they may continue well into the evening.


Let's pray for rain and storms(non-severe of course) along the Gulf to impede the flow of moisture into the Midsouth and to keep the severe weather to a minimum.
