I chase BIG storms in a really little car. California, Alaska, & Arkansas are states I've called home. I’m not a meteorologist but trust me, I know my weather.
Jonesboro, AR is one of the smaller T.V. markets in the U.S. but the wx team at
@Region8News
is an example of BIG market talent! They are a great team who are dedicated & care about their community. NE AR is lucky to have

58 people passed away due to Covid-19/complications yesterday in Arkansas. Think about this for a moment. If we lost 58 people in a tornado, we'd be all hands on deck trying to help. People are almost desensitized to the daily covid # now but we have to fight on & stop the spread
The cure for the Arkansas Football curse is simply switch back to Coca-Cola as the official soft drink of the Razorbacks. It’s a southern thing and it just means more.

If you told me at the beginning of March Madness that Arkansas would be the only SEC team left in the tournament by the sweet 16 I would have said…. Woo Pig!
Hats off to Arkansas storm chasers Scott and Michael Hollinger

My goodness, some of you seem to be getting upset about forecast snowfall totals & the system hasn't even arrived yet. If you've lived in AR long enough you know how fast wx can change and we've been both disappointed and surprised by these changes. Enjoy life & be happy.

No matter how the election turns out please be civil to each other. Elections come & go so don’t lose a friendship over 2020. Embrace our diversity and remember, the government does not define our nation. The people do, and I’m proud to call myself an American. Peace😎
Things I have not seen in my neighborhood this week. Postal worker, UPS, Fed Ex, Amazon, Wal-Mart, and Kroger delivery drivers, garbage pick up. Things I have seen, snow falling, kids playing, cars sliding, people helping. It’s been an interesting week.
Why would a tv station run a crawl over the score in a championship game? And why are you running a message to dish subscribers telling them they can’t watch the game on dish? Wouldn’t they already know they can’t see it?
The death of an 18 year old crossing the street in a crosswalk by a 17 year old driver who looked down at her phone in Fayetteville illustrates the distracted driving problem in this country. An avoidable tragedy that affects 2 families. PUT YOUR PHONE AWAY WHILE DRIVING. PERIOD!
I was in Sam's Club and noticed the Razorback apparel they are selling is made in China. Can we not get an Arkansas company to produce our Hog shirts to be sold in an Arkansas based retailer. Asking for a passionate razorback fan...
Is there any support among the people of Arkansas to have our state just stay on Daylight Saving Time year round? Florida may do it. If we have to spring forward then lets do it on Friday at 4:00 PM. Just sayin'...
After spending about 6 hours today at Baptist Health LR Emergency Room with a family member, I am in awe of our doctors and in particular, our ER nurses along with everyone who makes that place tick. They are AMAZING! Prayers for them and those they are helping. Peace😎
I'll end with this... Bring on summer with its 90 degree days, sunshine, high humidity, green grass, grilling out and a warm Gulf of Mexico beach or Arkansas lake!. Die Winter Die...

My reason to not support issue1 in AR. Since that tax has been collected in 2013 I’ve driven daily over the same shitty Interstate 40 between I-30 & 67/167 w/its cracks, potholes, craters, etc. It looks like a quilt. Why wasn’t it fixed? 1/2
Thank You Arkansas. You continue to make us proud. Great year full of lots of exciting basketball and some awesome wins. Great run in the tournament. I can’t wait until next year! Woo Proud Pig Sooie!
All this chatter about Arkansas’ path to the CWS being difficult. remember, this team was projected to finish 3rd in the west this year & look at what they’ve done. Only one
#1
seed has won the CWS since 1999. Arkansas is on a mission to be the 2nd to do it. Razorback mojo! WPS
When you look at the COVID-19 relief/stimulus bill just passed by the Senate, one has to ask why we are bailing out the cruise industry. Almost all of those companies are based outside of the USA & only around 5% of their employees are from the U.S. They pay very little in taxes.
One week from this Sunday, we "fall back" and it starts getting dark around 5:30 or so. I really wish we would just choose one or the other (Daylight Saving Time) (Standard Time) and leave it alone.

The words I'm tired of right now... New Normal, Social Distancing, Essential Business, Coronavirus, COVID-19, Self-Quarantine. Feel free to add to the list.
Today was a great day. My second grandson was born AR 12:20 on 2/20/2020 and he was 20” long & weighted 8 pounds 9 ounces. His mom is glad he didn’t weigh 20 pounds! Another Huggies baby enters the world.
As seen on the ESPN crawler.., Arkansas Football: 15th straight SEC loss. 12th straight loss vs. ranked opponent. Ouch. That hurts and I’m just a fan. You have to know the players are hurting. One day this will end. Woo Pig!
I want to give a shout out to all the manufacturing workers out there who are pushing through & making the products that we all will purchase. Without them, our nation's truckers, and those that stock the shelves, the stores would be empty. I salute you all.
This group of Razorbacks can hold their heads high. They were so close! They captured the attention of the whole state and it was a fun to watch them play this year. They’ll be back! Woo Pig Sooie. Go Hogs!

I’ve stayed out of the Razorback comments last night and today. I’m just going to sit back and give this coaching staff some time. It takes a while to build a house and they’ll get it done. Sparkle will help! Woo Pig.
THANK YOU to both the Razorback Men’s and Women’s teams for making Arkansas Basketball relevant again on a national stage. Razorback Nation stands proud tonight because of your dedication. Woo Pig!
I see Gov. Rick Scott of Florida signed the permanante Daylight Saving Bill for the state. No more "fall back" as they stay on DST year round. Come on Arkansas...get on that bus!
Back in 1983 (2weeks below freezing) and 1989 when we had extreme cold I don’t remember doing rolling blackouts due to cold. Why now? If our electrical grid can’t handle this cold spell, we’re in big trouble. ???
To the LSU fan's sitting in section 105 that boooed when the stadium announcer asked for a round of applause for TUSK 4 as he ends his last game at DWRRS before retirement. You were boooing a live mascot. Is it too much to have some class?

We are breaking down in society. This morning my wife was harassed by two men who followed her up and down the aisles in a central AR Wal-Mart calling her a hoarder because she had two cans of Lysol in her cart & they wanted one. The two weren't even together.
Arkansas is a Top 10 team… no doubt about it. No one cares about early season losses. It’s all about how you are playing down the stretch and this team is ON FIRE! Woo Pig!
Earthquakes in NE AR near Sunset and Marked Tree this evening. Every time NE AR starts to shake I hope the New Madrid fault isn’t waking up in a big way.
I'm about to embark on a nice little drive down to Austin, Texas as my daughter has accepted a new job opportunity in a city that she loves. She assures me that she is a Razorback 100% & there is no danger of becoming a Longhorn fan. Yes!! First stop..Buckey's in Temple!!
I’ve tried to remain positive as a Hog football fan but this is just too discouraging. I will not tweet about Razorback football again until they win two games in a row. See y’all in 2025.
Places where all is well tonite. Fayetteville Arkansas, Waco Texas, Lawrence Kansas. Places where all is not well… Baton Rouge Louisiana, Norman Oklahoma, and definitely Austin Texas. WPS.

This 94 National Championship game gives me chills every time I watch it. Very cool to have Corliss and Scottie with some play by play commentary. What a team. Woo Pig! Great Job

After seeing a story on the news this morning about children having to hang out in restaurant parking lots in order to gain internet access so they could complete online school work it is clear that we have to fix this. We can do better America. We have to!
I get that sick feeling every time espn shows the CWS bracket & I see NC State instead of Arkansas going up against Stanford. Good luck to the Wolfpack. 2022 will be here soon enough and the Hogs can start another run. I’m proud to call Arkansas home & love those Razorbacks! WPS
It’s amazing to me that the Green New Deal sponsors plan to make all these changes to our country in a span of 10 years. I mean it takes 10 years to widen 67/167 from Jacksonville to Cabot. Just sayin...
If you are wearing gloves in the store or to pump gas & then don’t take them off in the car, you’re just spreading what you touched in the store or pump to the car. Also...there is a correct way to remove your gloves to ensure you don’t contaminate your hands. Google it🖐🤚
I've missed much of the severe weather tonight. My wife has to work from home from today through whenever, so I was busy setting her entire office from KATV to home. I'm Mr. IT guy and I'm here to help! I would gladly give up a night of severe weather for her any day.
It’s a great feeling waking up this Sunday morning after a watching a Razorback SEC/Top 25 road win. Thank you Hogs. Now on to Auburn and hopefully passing the Gus Bus in the right lane... Pedal to the Metal. Woo Pig
From the you usually don't see that on Christmas Day dept. People in my neighborhood are washing their cars, grilling, and one house is doing a crab boil outside. Maybe I'll mow my lawn???

It’s a sad state of our country when the Florida attorney general has to mention that the Florida AG’s office will not allow funeral gouging or will be on the lookout for fraudulent go fund me accounts in response to the Florida HS shooting today.
Not sure what Arkansas’ piece of the latest “infrastructure bill” will be, but I hope a tiny fraction of the money can go to fix the numerous craters on I-40 EB just past the “End Construction” sign in NLR. You can’t miss the blown out tires each day. Seriously!
Ok... who programmed the EURO to start throwing out snowfall accumulation totals like the GFS next week? When they both do it... I start to take notice 👀❄️👀❄️👀❄️👀❄️👀❄️👀❄️👀❄️👀

My mom found a picture of my first van when was a teenager in Alaska. I paid 300 dollars for this beauty and fixed it up. It had 8track and cassette booming through some Panasonic Thrusters! Wish I had it now!!
So I just saw a story on the national news about a school employee taking the hot portion of a child’s lunch and throwing it in the trash because their family owed lunch money. Perfectly good food and throwing it away. We are losing our way...
Tomorrow is the last day of meteorological summer 2020. It's all downhill from here. Winter is coming... oh, a lot of people's favorite time of the year in Arkansas, fall is up first. I've already got a pile of leaves at the curb in Sherwood.They'll visit my neighbors soon.
