Timeline & Severe Risk of Storms Tuesday

The Storm Prediction Center shows the highest risk area in Memphis and Jonesboro on Tuesday late afternoon and evening. A few tornadoes will be possible with some of the strongest storms in the far eastern part of the state.

It’s Spring and it’s Arkansas… so even though there’s only a minimal risk we’ll be watching any and all storms closely until they exit the area.
