 Flash Flood Watch  Statement as of 10:06 PM CST on January 5, 2009


... Flash Flood Watch remains in effect through Tuesday morning...

The Flash Flood Watch continues for

* portions of central Arkansas... southeast Arkansas and
southwest Arkansas... including the following areas... in
central Arkansas... Grant. In southeast Arkansas... Arkansas...
Bradley... Cleveland... Desha... Drew... Jefferson and Lincoln. In
southwest Arkansas... Calhoun... Clark... Dallas... Hot Spring...
Ouachita and Pike.

* Through Tuesday noon CST.

* A storm system will approach Arkansas from the southwest
tonight and pass to the south of the state Tuesday. This
system is expected to produce locally heavy rainfall of up to
two inches across parts of southern Arkansas. This
precipitation will fall on areas that are already saturated
and areas with dead or dormant vegetation unable to absorb the
water... therefore making flash flooding a possibility.

* Excessive rainfall will produce runoff problems due to an
already saturated ground. Flooding of low lying and poor
drainage areas will be possible... as well as rapid rises of
streams and low water crossings.

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should flash flood warnings be issued.




 Record Report  Statement as of 04:17 PM CST on January 05, 2009

a record high temperature of 78 degrees was set at New Orleans
Armstrong international Airport today. This ties the old record of
78 set in 1955.

Discussion... 
main area of rain pushing east to southeast along i30 to i40 and 
will be mainly over southern areas this evening into the early 
overnight. Some isolated freezing precipitation around Little Rock area and 
to the northeast...but precipitation area moving out of this area. Models 
still showing additional energy to lift over Arkansas overnight...mainly 
focused over southern Arkansas. Temperatures expected to stay above freezing over 
southern areas...while around freezing central locations...upper 20s 
to 30 over northern areas. Will fine tune probability of precipitation and types with late 
evening update. Still considering a Winter Weather Advisory along 
northern edge of precipitation area and parts of central to northern Arkansas 
late evening and the overnight. Expecting overall pop to be slight 
over northern Arkansas...while chance central...to likely over southern 
areas. Will keep Flash Flood Watch going over southern areas... 
expecting isolated areas receiving 1 to 2 inches. (59)
