Rain Makes a Return - And Stays a While

A weak cold front moved into the Midsouth overnight and is nearly stationary over the AR/LA border region.  Scattered showers and thundershowers occurred last night along the front.  As a convective complex in Northern Arkansas moves to the southeast and interacts with the frontal boundary today, look for showers and thunderstorms to increase, possibly dumping some heavy rain on the Midsouth. 
 
 
This unstable weather pattern will probably continue right on thru the weekend, due to a surface low developing in the eastern TX gulf coast ahead of a strengthening low pressure system over the Red River Valley .  As it strengthens, it will lift into southern Arkansas over the weekend producing  more showers and thunderstorms.  Again, heavy rains are possible with this developing system.
 
 
Unsettled weather is anticipated through the first part of next week until the next cold front clears the area and brings an end to the rain.
