Little Rock, AR — Thursday’s weather brings isolated thunderstorms to Arkansas, with cooler temperatures anticipated as Labor Day weekend approaches. Forecast lows Thursday morning will range from the upper 60s to mid-70s, while highs are expected to reach near 100 degrees in some areas, particularly in southern Arkansas.
According to the U.S. National Weather Service in Little Rock, storm chances will persist throughout the day, with the best opportunities for rain occurring in southern sections of the state. The rainfall could vary, with some areas potentially seeing up to two inches, though many regions may only receive half an inch or less.
Looking ahead, Arkansas is also grappling with worsening drought conditions, expected to persist through the fall. While some scattered showers may offer temporary relief, they are not enough to reverse the dry trend. This could impact outdoor activities planned for the upcoming Labor Day weekend.
As temperatures cool slightly and isolated storms continue, residents are encouraged to stay hydrated and cautious, especially during outdoor activities. With the holiday weekend ahead, many will be watching the skies, hoping for more favorable weather to enjoy the festivities.
