Pouring Rain Dampens Central Arkansas After Dry Spell
Heavy rain fell in central Arkansas on Wednesday, October 4, as downpours across the state provided a respite from “abnormally dry conditions” in September.
Weather officials warned residents of “heavy downpours and lightning,” on Wednesday morning, and said rainfall and thunderstorms are expected to begin again overnight into Thursday.
Parts of central and southern Arkansas saw “moderate to severe drought conditions” as of late September, according to weather officials.
