FAYETTEVILLE, Arkansas — Baseball fans heading to Baum-Walker Stadium on Friday, April 17, for the University of Arkansas Razorbacks' 6 p.m. game can expect pleasant conditions during the early part of the day, but should prepare for a significant weather change.
The day is forecast to be warm with intermittent clouds and periods of sun. Temperatures will reach a high of 80 degrees, with real feel temperatures also hitting 80 degrees. Winds will be breezy, averaging 15 mph from the south-southwest, with gusts up to 39.1 mph. The air quality is listed as good, though grass pollen will be moderate and tree pollen high.
However, as the day progresses into the evening and night, the weather is expected to deteriorate. The forecast indicates increasing clouds and windy conditions, with a high probability of showers and a heavier thunderstorm developing. There is a 58% chance of thunderstorms and a 96% chance of rain, with heavy rain and potential for flash flooding, damaging winds, hail, and even a tornado.
Fans attending the game should monitor the weather closely as conditions could change rapidly during the contest.
