NORTHEAST LOUISIANA...AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST ARKANSAS .DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT... ...THUNDERSTORMS... WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED TODAY WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT SEVERE STORMS TO MOVE THROUGH THE REGION. A DEEPENING UPPER TROUGH AND INTENSIFYING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL PASS NORTHWEST OF THE AREA. VERY STRONG WINDS WILL DEVELOP AT ALL LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE IN RESPONSE TO THIS SYSTEM...HELPING TO INCREASE MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY. WIDESPREAD WIND DAMAGE WILL BE LIKELY. TORNADOES AND LARGE HAIL ARE ALSO POSSIBLE FOR THE ENTIRE AREA. A SQUALL LINE IS EXPECTED TO RACE THROUGH THE REGION TODAY. AT THIS TIME...AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER LOOK TO BE AFFECTED AROUND 10 AM WITH THE I-55 CORRIDOR AFFECTED DURING MID AFTERNOON AND EASTERN AREAS BY LATE AFTERNOON. THE PRIMARY RISK LOOKS TO BE EXTENSIVE DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70 OR 80 MPH AND LARGE HAIL. TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. AS THE LINE OF STORMS APPROACH A FEW STORMS MAY DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE LINE. THESE STORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE LONG TRACK SIGNIFICANT TORNADOES. EVERYONE IS URGED TO KEEP UP TO DATE ON THE LATEST FORECASTS AND OUTLOOKS CONCERNING THIS POTENTIAL SIGNIFICANT WEATHER OUTBREAK. ...FLOODING... BRIEF PERIOD OF HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR MUCH OF THE AREA TODAY. THE STORM SYSTEM WAS EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA VERY QUICKLY. HOWEVER...RAINFALL AMOUNTS FROM A HALF INCH TO AN INCH WITH ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS MAY LEAD TO PONDING OF WATER ON ROADWAYS. ...NON PRECIPITATION... A TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL LEAD TO STRONG WINDS TODAY. EXPECT SUSTAINED WINDS NEAR 25 MPH TO DEVELOP OVER THE NORTHWEST THIS MORNING AND CONTINUE TO SPREAD EAST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. SUSTAINED WINDS NEAR 25 MPH WITH GUSTS TO 35 MPH WILL BE LIKELY FOR THE ENTIRE AREA BY THE AFTERNOON. HIGHER GUSTS TO 50 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE...HOWEVER CLOUDY SKIES SHOULD PREVENT THE HIGHER GUSTS FROM REACHING THE GROUND.

PERSONS DRIVING HIGH PROFILE VEHICLES TRAVELING ON EAST TO WEST ROADWAYS SHOULD ALSO REMAIN ALERT FOR STRONG WIND GUSTS. ANY LOOSE OBJECTS SHOULD BE SECURED. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... ...DAYS TWO AND THREE...FRIDAY AND SATURDAY... NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME. ...DAYS FOUR THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE OVER THE REGION TO MAINTAIN THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK. SEVERAL DISTURBANCES WILL MOVE OVER THE REGION FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. A COLD FRONT THAT WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA MONDAY WILL INCREASE THE CHANCE OF SEVERE STORMS. .SPOTTER CALL TO ACTION STATEMENT...
