Unseasonable Weather for August

Hands down, today was one of the best days we've had in over month. I know you're thinking this might not last long, well, actually, the weather looks to be even cooler by mid-August.

                                     (Upper level flow for this week and next weekend)

I guess the stars are aligning just right for Arkansas because our upper level flow will allow two cold fronts to rush into the state later this week.  Not only will the cold fronts bring us much needed rain chances, but the frontal boundaries will reinforce mild air from the North.

If the weather models are correct, which I believe they are, we could be looking at daytime highs only reaching the mid 80's by this same time next week.  How's that for a cool down in the summer?

One can only hope this weather pattern will stretch all the way through this month because lord knows we need it around this region.  Only time will tell if Mother Nature will be kinder to us late this summer.
