Flooding in Northwest Arkansas, rain to hit River Valley soon

WHAT ARE YOU SEEING ON THE RADAR RIGHT NOW? >> WELL, I TELL YOU WHAT. THE FLOOD WATCH FOR NORTHWEST ARKANSAS, NORTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA AND SOUTHWEST MISSOURI IS STILL IN EFFECT UNTIL ONE THE FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS THAT WERE ISSUED EARLIER IN THE MORNING. THOSE ARE ALSO STILL IN EFFECT. AND THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JUST SENT OUT A MESSAGE THAT THEY ARE EXPECTING TO SEE AT LEAST ANOTHER INCH OF RAINFALL OVER FAYETTEVILLE. AND REMEMBER, FAYETTEVILLE WAS THE AREA THAT IT WAS ISSUED A CONSIDERABLE FLASH FLOOD WARNING. SO EXPECTING AT LEAST ANOTHER INCH OF RAIN OVER FAYETTEVILLE IN THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. NOW, AS WE SHIFT GEARS JUST A LITTLE BIT, I CAN SHOW YOU WHERE THE HEAVIEST RAIN IS. I’M GOING TO ZOOM IN TO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS JUST A LITTLE BIT THERE. IF I CAN GET IN THERE. AND ALTHOUGH IT IS CONTINUING TO RAIN IN PARTS OF WASHINGTON COUNTY. YOU SEE THESE SOUTHERN FRINGES. THESE ARE THE STRONGEST SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THAT’S WHERE YOU’RE SEEING ALL OF THE LIGHTNING RIGHT THERE. THIS IS CONTINUING TO SHIFT SORT OF SOUTHEASTERLY AND WILL CONTINUE IN THAT MOTION THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. THAT MEANS MORE OF THE RIVER VALLEY WILL BEGIN TO SEE THOSE SHOWERS AND STORMS AS THEY CONTINUE TO DROP FARTHER SOUTHWARD. SO KEEP IN MIND, WE’RE ALL GOING TO BE DEALING WITH THIS WET WEATHER FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. TOMORROW IT’S GOING TO BE A LITTLE ON THE CLOUDY SIDE WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S. SUNSHINE RETURNS FOR THE WEEKEND. I HAVEN’T GOTTEN TO TOUCH ON THIS VERY MUCH AT ALL, AND SINCE IT IS A HOLIDAY WEEKEND, I DID WANT TO LET YOU KNOW. MEMORIAL DAY LABOR DAY LOOKS TO BE GREAT IN THE RIVER VALLEY. SHOWERS AND STORMS TODAY. IN THE FIRST PART OF TONIGHT. TOMORROW P
