Warnings and Notices

	Winter Weather Advisory
Statement as of 2:33 PM CDT on March 20, 2010 ... Winter Weather Advisory now in effect from 9 PM this evening to noon CDT Sunday... The Winter Weather Advisory is now in effect from 9 PM this evening to noon CDT Sunday. * Timing... a cold rain will continue through the remainder of the afternoon along and behind the cold front. Colder air will filter in after sunset... allowing for snow to mix in with the rain across portions of northwest and west Arkansas. Precipitation will begin to taper off and become more patchy on Sunday as the system pulls away from the region. * Accumulations... accumulations in the advisory area will generally be between 1 to 2 inches with higher amounts across western Arkansas. Some higher elevations across west Arkansas could see closer to 3 inches. * Main impact... with air temperatures remaining near to just above freezing during the time the snow will fall and taking into account the warm ground temperatures... highest snowfall will likely be in the higher elevations and on grassy areas. * Other impacts..areas of snow or slush may accumulate on some area roadways... especially less traveled and elevated ones. This may lead to some slippery driving conditions. Precautionary/preparedness actions... A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of wintry precipitation will cause travel difficulties. Be prepared for snow covered roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while driving.
