We are currently in a stable weather pattern with another sunny and warm day ahead. The cold front that moved through has stalled over southern Arkansas but will gradually lift northward today.
Upper-level energy will pass just north tonight, bringing a layer of high clouds. Combined with a south breeze, this will keep overnight lows mild, ranging from the mid to upper 50s.
A weak front will move through Friday, but temperatures will stay similar to today, leading to another pleasant Saturday.
A stronger cold front will arrive Saturday evening. As the north wind strengthens, temperatures will drop sharply. Sunday will feel dramatically colder, with highs struggling to rise above 40°.
There is a chance of a few snow flurries Sunday due to moisture associated with a powerful upper low forming just east of us.
A broad high-pressure system will cover the central U.S. by Monday morning, causing lows to fall into the teens in certain areas. After Monday, a significant warming trend is expected next week.
Author's summary: A warm and sunny stretch continues through Saturday before a cold front brings chilly temperatures and possible snow flurries Sunday, followed by a warming trend next week.
