LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – Forecasters in Arkansas say it will remain bitterly
cold for the rest of the weekend and into Monday, but temperatures should start
to rebound into the 40s and 50s by the middle of the week.
The National Weather Service says colder air settled over the state Sunday,
and high temperatures were expected only in the 20s in the north and 30s
elsewhere.
Monday will see morning lows in the teen to single digits and evening lows in
the 20s.
A blast of arctic air from Canada caused temperatures to plunge by more than
40 degrees across Arkansas on Saturday. Precipitation from storms caused roads
and bridges to ice over as temperatures fell.
Forecasters expect temperatures to gradually rise into the 40s and 50s by the
middle of the week.
