Severe to extreme drought remain across our region, along with numerous Burn Bans. Please remember to check with your local, county/parish, or state officials before starting any outdoor fires.
Yet another hot October day is on the way to the Ark-La-Tex with temperature maximums in the lower 90s and southerly winds at 5-10 mph under mostly cloudy skies. Rain chances over 30% will remain west of I-49 through the afternoon.
A strong cold front will bring the coolest temperatures of the season to the area on Friday and continuing through the weekend. The coolest afternoon will be Saturday with highs in the 70s and the coolest night will be Saturday night with lows in the 40s and 50s
A strong cold front will bring much drier conditions to the area late this week and through the weekend with relative humidity values dropping between 20 and 30 percent and winds gusting out of the north up to 30 mph at times. This will increase the threat for fires.
Here are today's climate records for selected sites across the Four State area.
