Pressure instability brewing severe weather Friday

The team at KTLO, Classic Hits and the Boot continues to monitor the chance for severe weather Friday afternoon into evening.

According to the National Weather Service in Little Rock, a strong upper-level low-pressure system will move across the central U.S., creating an environment favorable for severe storms. Key ingredients, including instability, wind shear, and atmospheric lift, are expected to align over Arkansas, increasing the likelihood of severe thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening hours.

While exact details are still being refined, forecasters warn that the conditions could produce damaging winds, large hail, and possibly tornadoes. Residents are encouraged to monitor local forecasts and have a severe weather plan in place.

Stay tuned for updates as the system develops.
