For Wednesday, May 16, 2012

LOW risk of river flooding through Thursday 12z.

It was mostly dry across the Arkansas-Red Basin during the 24 hour period ending at 7AM Wednesday. A few, very isolated showers developed during the afternoon and evening hours on Tuesday in extreme northeast Texas, southeast Oklahoma and southwest Arkansas. Amounts were highest outside of the basin with totals within the basin less than one-quarter inch. The only other area that received any rainfall was along the ridgeline of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in north-central New Mexico. Isolated showers there produced totals less than one-tenth inch.

A ridge of high pressure aloft will again inhibit any widespread organized areas of precipitation through the end of the work week. A few weak disturbances moving around the periphery of the ridge may bring some light shower activity to the northwestern sections of the ABRFC through Friday.

There is currently no flooding ongoing or forecast.
