Friday's low pressure system will exit the region on Saturday, so the rain chances will fall out of the forecast for us once we get through the morning hours. Even though that low will be leaving the area we still will see a decent amount of cloud cover for our Saturday. Those clouds will gradually break up as we go through the day, with skies ending up partly cloudy for Saturday evening.

It will be rain free for Saturday night which will be nice for Fayetteville and the Lights Of The Ozarks! That event kicks off on the Fayetteville square at 6 PM on Saturday night, so go check it out if you can!  Bentonville also has the Lighting of the Square starting at 5 PM and the weather looks great for that event as well.

Sunday will be a really nice day, with a mixture of sun and clouds expected. High temperatures will be NICE too, with temperatures making it into the lower to middle 60's on Sunday! You will definitely want to enjoy Sunday because our weather will start to go downhill again on Monday, as a STRONG COLD FRONT moves in from the west.

This cold front will continue to get closer to us on Monday, with some spotty showers and storms developing as we go through the day. I think the best chances for seeing those spotty showers/storms will come later in the day and into the evening hours, as the cold front starts to make its way through northwest AR.

This cold front should swing through northwest AR sometime Monday evening but even after it moves through here, the wet weather will continue for Monday night and early Tuesday!

After the rain wraps up on Tuesday morning it looks like some quiet, but COLD weather, moves in for the rest of next week! High temperatures for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday will be right around 40! Overnight low temperatures will be down in the 20's to near 30! BRRRR!

The reason we stay so cold next week is that a number of dry cold fronts look to swing through here next week (one on Wednesday evening and another one next Saturday evening). Those fronts will help to reinforce the cold and dry air that moves in behind Monday's cold front! Needless to say, you will need to keep the heavy coat handy if that forecast pans out for next week!
