A persistent subtropical ridge of high pressure over the south central United States during the month of July resulted in prolonged hot and dry weather across the region. There were a few days on which isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms occurred but these were far too few to have much affect. Much of west central Arkansas received precipitation amounts during the month that were well below average (less than 25 percent of normal).  Some locations only received a few hundredths of an inch of rainfall during the entire month. As a result, severe drought conditions had redeveloped across the region by month's end. Monetary damages as a result of this drought were not available.
