CAPE is low. EHI is not good. Overall worst threat looks to be from a line from Jonesboro to Pine Bluff to El Dorado and points to the east for severe weather. Little Rock NWS is passing the worst of the weather to Memphis in which their NWS also doesn't believe in a major outbreak, more of a linear line of thunderstorms. Hail and wind is the highest threat with the freezing line at about 12,000 feet at that time. At the VERY worst, Hail to 1.75 inches in diameter. Winds to 70 mph and one or two EF-0s or maybe even an EF-1 tornado at MAX. Straight line winds will be the bigger problem the further east of Arkansas you go. Overall, NO big severe weather maker with this one for Arkansas. As you said, we've got a way to go before the Gulf warms back up again for a significant severe weather outbreak in Arkansas.Bruce Waynenoreply@blogger.com
