We have a very interesting weather pattern setting up for the rest of the week. A deepening low along the West coast will keep us warm and dry through Saturday. The ridge of high pressure will also help to strengthen a tropical wave currently located over Florida.



This wave will need to be watched closely. Conditions will be favorable for this low to develop into a depression or a topical storm along the Gulf Coast. Remember Humberto? He developed in a 24 hour period right off the coast. What's interesting about this wave is the movement. Under the high the wave will move to the west. Meteorologists call this type of movement "retrograding".




As you can see the models are predicting chances for showers and storms toward the end of the weekend across Arkansas in association with this low. We'll watch it closely.
