00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.290
Welcome to five News Online.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:02.290 --> 00:00:03.664
I'm Joe Ellison.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:03.670 --> 00:00:05.910
Weather is the big story today as a

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:05.910 --> 00:00:07.818
storm system moves across our area.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:07.820 --> 00:00:10.196
I should keep all of us on alert.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:10.200 --> 00:00:11.826
Today, of course, we'll talk more

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:11.826 --> 00:00:13.759
about the timeline of today's weather.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:13.760 --> 00:00:15.727
But first, here's a look that was

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:15.727 --> 00:00:17.030
already happened this morning.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:17.030 --> 00:00:18.520
Now, just after 8:00 AM,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:18.520 --> 00:00:20.164
the storm system hit the northwest

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:20.164 --> 00:00:21.780
part of steel wool Stilwell.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:21.780 --> 00:00:23.270
OK, according to the mayor,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:23.270 --> 00:00:25.232
they're waiting to hear from the

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:25.232 --> 00:00:27.139
National Weather Service on if this

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:27.139 --> 00:00:28.771
was a small tornado or straight

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:28.771 --> 00:00:30.409
line winds that caused damage.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:30.410 --> 00:00:31.910
They have some power outages.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:31.910 --> 00:00:33.102
Phone lines are down,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:33.102 --> 00:00:34.592
and some roofs ripped off.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:36.686
Thankfully, no one was hurt in this,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:36.690 --> 00:00:37.882
and there's still assessing

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:37.882 --> 00:00:39.074
that damage in Stilwell.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:39.080 --> 00:00:39.674
OK, alright,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:39.674 --> 00:00:41.456
let's get straight to weather with

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:41.456 --> 00:00:42.669
meteorologist Zach Scott, Zach.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:42.669 --> 00:00:45.360
How long can we expect this to stick around?

NOTE Confidence: 0.87671125

00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:45.960
Joe, we're

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:47.772
gonna continue to track these storms

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:47.772 --> 00:00:50.439
out of our area by two to three o'clock.

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:50.440 --> 00:00:51.950
The shower and thunderstorm activity

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:51.950 --> 00:00:53.460
should be east of Northwest

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:53.512 --> 00:00:54.927
Arkansas and the River Valley.

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:54.930 --> 00:00:57.016
We're going to see that shower and

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:57.016 --> 00:00:58.279
thunderstorm activity pushing more

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:58.279 --> 00:00:59.864
into central eastern Arkansas and

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:00:59.864 --> 00:01:01.460
then crossing the Mississippi River.

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:01.460 --> 00:01:03.926
As we go later on tonight and that's a

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:03.926 --> 00:01:06.524
severe threat going with it behind the rain,

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:06.530 --> 00:01:08.020
we're looking at again that

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:08.020 --> 00:01:09.510
cold front bringing in cooler,

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:09.510 --> 00:01:11.095
drier air temperatures going from

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:11.095 --> 00:01:13.250
70s ahead of the front into the

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:13.250 --> 00:01:14.270
50s and 40s again,

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:14.270 --> 00:01:16.356
the shower thunderstorm activity gone by two,

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:16.360 --> 00:01:17.850
three o'clock east of Clarksville,

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:17.850 --> 00:01:19.340
clearing skies into the evening.

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:19.340 --> 00:01:20.231
We'll see temperatures

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:20.231 --> 00:01:21.716
continue to drop in overnight.

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:21.720 --> 00:01:23.508
We could see some frost with

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:23.508 --> 00:01:24.700
temperatures in the 30s.

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:24.700 --> 00:01:25.642
For Thursday morning.

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:25.642 --> 00:01:27.212
We'll have the latest on

NOTE Confidence: 0.83788055

00:01:27.212 --> 00:01:28.579
that forecast coming up all

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:28.580 --> 00:01:30.070
right. Thanks so much Zach.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:30.070 --> 00:01:31.660
Well, the CDC has extended.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:31.660 --> 00:01:33.490
Asked requirements for travelers to

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:33.490 --> 00:01:35.320
May 3rd the Biden administration

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:35.380 --> 00:01:37.265
announced the extension of the

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:37.265 --> 00:01:38.773
Nationwide Mask mandate requirement

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:38.773 --> 00:01:40.887
for public transit for 15 days as

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:40.887 --> 00:01:43.039
they monitor an uptick in COVID cases.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:43.039 --> 00:01:44.754
The extension will allow more

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:44.754 --> 00:01:47.345
time to study the BA2 Omicron sub

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:47.345 --> 00:01:49.185
variant that is responsible for

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:49.259 --> 00:01:51.324
the majority of cases in the US.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:51.330 --> 00:01:53.882
Now, the CDC is waiting to get more

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:53.882 --> 00:01:56.196
information on the rise in cases

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:56.196 --> 00:01:58.206
before actually announcing a less

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:58.206 --> 00:01:59.877
restrictive mask policy for travel

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:01:59.877 --> 00:02:02.005
and some sad news out of Oklahoma.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:02.005 --> 00:02:04.280
We're learning a 3 year old drowned

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:06.649
at Lake Eufaula in McIntosh County.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:06.650 --> 00:02:08.738
State troopers with the Oklahoma Highway

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:08.738 --> 00:02:10.518
Patrol reported the drowning Monday

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:10.518 --> 00:02:12.510
after the toddler was reported missing.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:12.510 --> 00:02:15.072
Dive teams found his body and Richard

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:15.072 --> 00:02:17.000
Barnett has rejected a plea deal.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:18.725
Now you'll remember he's the

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:18.725 --> 00:02:20.450
man from Gravitt right here,

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:20.450 --> 00:02:22.648
photographed with his foot on a desk

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:22.648 --> 00:02:24.928
and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:24.930 --> 00:02:26.655
This was during the January

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:26.655 --> 00:02:27.690
6th capital riots.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:27.690 --> 00:02:30.218
An attorney for 61 year old Barnett has

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:30.218 --> 00:02:32.936
said he actually turned down an offer.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:32.940 --> 00:02:34.860
And plead guilty to obstruction of

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:34.860 --> 00:02:36.140
an official government proceeding.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:36.140 --> 00:02:37.690
Barnett is charged with entering

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:37.690 --> 00:02:39.240
and remaining in a restricted

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:39.290 --> 00:02:40.940
building with a dangerous weapon,

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:40.940 --> 00:02:42.220
theft of government property

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:42.220 --> 00:02:43.180
and disorderly conduct.

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:43.180 --> 00:02:43.468
Well,

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:43.468 --> 00:02:45.196
those are some of your top

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:45.196 --> 00:02:46.700

NOTE Confidence: 0.85638905

00:02:46.700 --> 00:02:49.260
We'll continue to follow the news all day.

00:02:49.260 --> 00:02:51.892
You can catch up with us again this
