The Arkansas Weather Hawk's Blog

      Hey GoodEvening Everybody! I hope you're having a great day so far, Look I don't want to waste anytime digressing, very serious weather moving in, let's go All In! Okay so Oklahoma will get serious weather this evening, and tonight. They are under a PDS (Particularly Dangerous Situation) Tornado Watch... PDS Watches account for less than 2% of all Tornado Watches issued by the Storm Prediction Center. So when you see a PDS watch, that means it's BAD! BUT, that's Oklahoma, I have No reason to believe we will get one here in Arkansas.      Those Storms in Oklahoma will get close to and move over here towards Arkansas Later tonight, and overnight. Now by the time it gets HERE it will be a lot Weaker in nature so it won't be as bad. BUT, here's the Catch 22 to this, when the sun rises tomorrow, as it moves out of West Arkansas, and into Central Arkansas the Storms WILL REINTENSIFY. Okay, so let's play this Out....... Around 2am the Storms Start to cre...

     GoodEvening everybody I hope everybody's having a well night so far. I just got done checking the evening run of the Weather Models, and it seems that we have some Typical Spring Weather coming by the Middle of the incoming work week. The Threats will be High Damaging Thunderstorm Winds, Large Hail, and Tornadoes are definitely possible! It's starting to become a bit clearer what's likely going to happen when this stuff comes in, let's break it down.      It looks like this will be a TYPICAL spring setup. For the public, that's not a good thing. Here's the deal, Tuesday night there will be a chance for Severe Weather in Far West Arkansas (Just some strong storms). The real threat is Wednesday. For West Arkansas, Wednesday Afternoon.... For Central Arkansas, Wednesday Evening. For East Arkansas, Wednesday Night! That's the expected timeline. Now when it comes to Severe Weather the chance really comes in later in the day as the Heating of the ground rea...

     Hey GoodMorning Everybody How's it going!! Just doing a weather update, I haven't done one in a while, and I miss my weather blog, I miss my weather page. I was feeling lonely. ! Seriously! I was feeling lonely without my true love (WEATHER). So I had to do a weather update, even if there's nothing to talk about, I still had to say something! But there actually is something to talk about, RAIN! We are once again getting bad flooding down in Texas right now. This time it's Houston. It's bad man, its real bad. At least from the flooding pictures, and video that I'VE SEEN! That is a CLASSIC EXAMPLE of what happens when you don't take care of LITTER, STORM DRAINS, AND LOCAL RIVERS AND CREEKS. You have to CLEAN UP what you MESS UP, otherwise the water fall out the sky and backup. This is how it goes. ! But we won't get nothing like that, we'll just get decent rainfall, which is what we need, wash some of that pollen away. Let's break it down.   ...

     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 Meteorolo...

      GoodMorning Everybody, How's it going.! As you likely know by now there is a developing weather situation later this evening for Arkansas. This severe weather threat comes from a quick moving storm system out of Oklahoma, and Instability out of North Texas. Those two mixed together presents us with the threat of severe weather.. In a Nutshell, Squal line develops this evening in West Arkansas, moves East into Central Arkansas into the Eveing/Nighttime Hours. Main Threats, Hail, damaging winds, Tornadoes ARE A POSSIBILITY with any ISOLATED storms that get organized. Primary Threat is Wind as it moves into East Arkansas later into the Nighttime hours. This is the Slight/Enhanced Risk area for Arkansas from the Storm Prediction Center in Norman Oklahoma. The slight risk is basically for the entire state, but there and "Enhanced Risk" (Raised Area Of Concern) for the Southwest corner of Arkansas.  This is a closer more in detail breakdown of what the risk f...

     GoodMorning Everybody, I hope everybody had a safe night! I was planning on doing a weather update last night, but work wouldn't give me the time of day. I'm finally off! Anyways, on to the weather, there is A LOT to cover!      Okay First thing's first, this weekend will be awesome! Today, and tomorrow will be great. Get out, wash the car, wax it, go for a little cruise in your nice clean ride. Get out enjoy the weather, IT WON'T LAST LONG......      *Next Week, Okay so You know I study 3 Weather Models, NAM (North American Model), GFS ( Global Forecasting System), CMC (Canadian Weather Model). Now I look at and observe other weather maps, but my big 3 is those 3. Now all of the models agree on the Onset of this next BIG TIME weather maker.......TUESDAY. The Rain will start sometime during the morning hours on Tuesday. Overnight Tuesday, and into Wednesday there will be a frontal boundary setup and it will stall, and just sit over Ark...

     Hey everybody, how's it going. I'm dedicating a whole blog post to the memory of my late grandmother. It was 5 years ago today that I lost one of the most imperative women I've ever met in my entire life. This woman served one of the most influential roles of anybody that I've ever come into contact with.      When I was little, I had pretty much no father. My dad was known to my family in a very negative light that HE CAUSED. So I had no male or "Man" role models at an early age. All I've ever had was my Mommy and my 3 big sisters, they are responsible for the outstanding man that I am today, I owe it to them. But being the fact that my youngest sister is 9 years older than me, and my mom always slaved herself to death to get the bills paid, I had no immediate interaction with people.  My best friend was my DOG!!! All throughout my childhood years. Now Growing up, me and my grandmother didn't "Hit it off!" I didn't like her because...
