Rainfall totals today will mostly range from 0.5″ to 1.5″.  Another round of precipitation will move in Wednesday. A cold rain or wintry mix will set up for the majority of the day with snow flurries possible by Wednesday night. A few degree difference in temperatures will change the rain-snow line dramatically so forecast changes are expected. Details below:

WINTRY WEDNESDAY

Our next winter storm arrives Wednesday mid-morning. Temperatures will be close to freezing throughout the day which means a messy wintry mix may fall across portions of western Arkansas. Fort Smith and locations south and east will remain with a cold rain with temperatures in the low 40s.
