LITTLE ROCK — Residents along and east of the I-30 corridor and south of I-40 from Little Rock to Memphis should prepare for the potential of strong to severe storms on Saturday, February 15.
Saturday Storm Threat
Severe weather risks will be highest during daylight hours on Saturday, though storms could linger into the late evening. The primary threats include:
- Strong straight-line winds
- Isolated tornadoes (low but possible)
- Localized flash flooding due to already saturated ground
Heavy rainfall is expected, with an additional 1-3 inches of rain possible across the region.
Looking Ahead: Winter Weather Speculation

Meteorologists emphasize that it’s too early to make any definitive predictions, and the forecast is expected to change multiple times in the coming days. Residents should stay informed but remain cautious of premature speculation.
