Increasing Clouds, Late Rain?
Friday January 27, 2012
Clouds will increase today ahead of a cold front. The cold front will pass through Northwest Arkansas late this afternoon shifting wind around from the northwest. A few showers are possible this evening as moisture pools just behind the front. The better chances for showers will be over southern Missouri this evening. Skies clear late tonight and I expect a sunny weekend. Temperatures will be cool but not cold for the weekend with a warmer day on Sunday. Mild readings return on Monday.
