The National Weather Service office in North Little Rock has issued a Winter Storm Warning for today and Friday across most of the state of Arkansas.
The warning is set to end at 6 p.m. on Friday.
All North of the River schools have cancelled classes for today and Friday as there’s as much as eight inches of snow expected to fall between tonight and Friday.
That means all athletic events scheduled at those schools will be postponed and the various government offices will either be closed or see limited hours. Call ahead if you have any business to attend to.
The city of North Little Rock opened a warming center at the city’s Community Center at 2700 N. Willow St., earlier this week and it will be open to at least Friday but those hours are likely to be extended given the forecast.
Those needing to use the center are encouraged to bring their own snacks, drinks and games for their own entertainment.
The warming center will open at 6 p.m. each night.
If you or your organization or church would like to donate meals, please call 501-975-8780.
