Sultry Summer Makes a Return

Hot and humid conditions returned to the Seark Monday as temperatures climbed into the mid 90's.  Heat index readings were in the 102-107 range. Isolated thunderstorms also developed over portions of the Seark yesterday. 
 
Early this morning showers formed over the Southeast Arkansas, proof of just how moist it is out there today.  If clouds from MCS in NE/KS and from our system hang with us very long this morning, temperatures may have difficulty meeting NWS guidance levels.
 
With such high humidity and temps rising into the low 90's for sure, widely scattered storms cannot be ruled out anywhere.
 
The MCS in KS/NE/MO will have to be monitored for further development. Possibility of outflow boundaries from those storms effecting us is negligible. 
 
The atmosphere looks to dry out in the latter part of the week, with Friday possibly being one of the warmest days this month.
