Fall Severe Weather Season AWARENESS

-
           It was nearly 5 years ago back in 2009, the state of Arkansas had its most active fall severe weather season to date. With 15 Tornado Reports and about 22 Severe Weather Reports, needless to say it was a pretty active fall. Fall Severe Weather season here in Arkansas typically runs from Sometimes Late September all the way through early December. Fall Months can be just as violent as spring months, and has been in the past. All due to similar climate conditions in both the season of spring and fall. Now 2009 was the most active in recent history for Arkansas. But 2012 wasn't very far behind with 13 Tornado reports mostly in October and November. I'm not saying this year (2014) will be like either of those years. I just want it to be known that Tornadoes can and do happen in the fall months before winter. So just like you do in the spring, take the warnings and notices VERY serious because here in Arkansas just like anywhere else, it could mean the difference between life and death. 

 The Picture above is the map of a Tornado Outbreak back on November 27th 2005 over 20 tornadoes reported in ONE DAY! Thats a Spring Type Tornado Outbreak, and a classic one. In Thr FALL!!!
Now in this picture right here, this is the Camden Arkansas Tornado back on October 29th 2009. Now 2009 was a very interesting year for Arkansas Weather Wise, because that was one of the only years in Recent history where the Fall Tornado Season nearly matched the Spring one. Meaning we had nearly as many tornadoes that FALL as we did that Spring. 

Those Pictures are Courtesy of the National Weather Service here in Little Rock. So just like I said Fall can be just as dangerous. I don't want to scare anybody, I just want to make you Aware so that when or IF a warning gets issued for your area you don't write it off as nothing just because it's Fall time. 

I am The Arkansas Weather Hawk, as always I appreciate you for choosing me to be your go to guy for Weather Information. Y'all have a Gooden!

     Hey everybody, I hope everybody is having a Fantastic night so far, and I hope everybody is safe. Over the last week, I've been watching a Storm System moving through tomorrow afternoon. The Main threats will be Limited Due to the timing of day, and the level of severity will be limited due to the lack of Instability. See Below.      This is a map courtesy of the National Weather Service in North Little Rock, as you can see here the Primary Threats will be Large Hail, and Damaging Thunderstorm Winds. Tornadoes cannot be ruled out, but are not likely.  This will not be a widespread severe weather outbreak. Mainly because this will come as two waves of moisture. The first wave of showers and storms will move through early in the morning on Thursday, SOME MAY BE STRONG. So for those getting up for work, and school, be aware of this. That first Initial wave will move through and leave lingering rain behind. This will cause cooling, and stabilize the atmosphere to keep Severe

     Hey everybody, how's it going! I hope you guys are having a good day so far. I know I haven't done any weather updates recently, haven't had much going on weather wise, and I'm in the middle of a busy work week, so I just haven't had time to do anything. But I'm making time today, because we have a storm system coming in overnight tonight, and into tomorrow morning. So lets take a dive into it aye.     As far as Timing goes, It's looking like Late this Evening in Oklahoma, Later tonight in West Arkansas, and moving left to right across the state during the Overnight Hours. So for Central Arkansas 12-2AM would be a good bet, and East Arkansas 2-7AM would be a good bet.     As far as what the threats are, well mainly due solely to the timing of the night this will move in, the MAIN threats are Hail, and Damaging Straight Line Winds. At First this was expected to move in during the Evening hours, and that raised some Tornado Concern among Meteorologist,
