We thank you all for the hail reports we have received so far from last nights storms. Unfortunately it looks like we will receive even more large hail over the next couple of days. Here's some best practices for reporting and measuring hailstones in the future.
Significant hail struck west to southwest Arkansas on Friday night, with numerous reports of hail greater than two inches. The Montgomery, Hot Spring, Pike, and Clark county border region was hit particularly hard, with tennis ball to baseball sized hail striking Welsh, Glenwood, Amity, Point Cedar, and Alpine. Numerous reports of damage to buildings and car windows accompanied this hail.
The latest drought monitor is in and all of the state remains in some sort of drought, much of it extreme or exceptional. Rain is in the forecast for the next several days to hopefully put a dent in these very dry conditions. #arwx
