ARKANSAS — A warm, humid, and summer-like Saturday is underway across Arkansas with high temperatures climbing into the upper 80s and touching 90 degrees across the southern tier of the state this afternoon. Humidity is running high statewide and is not going anywhere through the day, making conditions feel significantly warmer than the thermometer reads. Breezy conditions and continued chances for spotty showers will accompany the heat and humidity through the afternoon and evening hours.
