...A LATE-NIGHT TORNADO EPISODE IS POSSIBLE...

THIS OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHWEST AND WEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS AS WELL AS
MUCH OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.
TORNADO.
	RISK...SIGNIFICANT.
	AREA....ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-44 IN OKLAHOMA AND ALL OF
			NORTHWEST AND WEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS.
	ONSET....AFTER 3AM.

	AREA AT GREATEST RISK...LE FLORE...PUSHMATAHA...
			AND CHOCTAW COUNTIES.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM.

	AREA...EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST AND WEST-CENTRAL ARKANSAS.
	ONSET...NOW.

	AREA AT GREATEST RISK...ALONG AND SOUTH OF I-44 IN OKLAHOMA AND
			AND ALL OF NORTHWEST AND WEST CENTRAL ARKANSAS.

DISCUSSION...
A SURFACE BOUNDARY WAS DEVELOPING ACROSS SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS...FAR SOUTHEAST
OKLAHOMA AND NORTH TEXAS.  AS A STRONG UPPER-LEVEL SYSTEM SWEEPS OUT
INTO THE PLAINS OVERNIGHT A PRIMARY LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS
EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS.  A SECONDARY SMALL SCALE LOW
CENTER IS EXPECTED TO TRACK DOWN THE BOUNDARY ACROSS FAR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA.
THE ATMOSPHERE IS EXPECTED TO BECOME INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE TONIGHT AHEAD
OF THE SURFACE LOWS AND WIND PROFILES WILL BE VERY FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS.

WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL OCCUR IN THE REGION OVERNIGHT WITH
SUPERCELLS AND LINE SEGMENTS.  LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL OCCUR
WITH THE STORMS.

IF THE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY CONTINUES TO EXIST OVERNIGHT...IT WOULD BECOME
THE FOCUS FOR LONG-LIVED SUPERCELL STORMS WITH THE RISK OF A STRONG
TORNADO.  ANY SHIFT EITHER NORTH OF SOUTH OF THIS BOUNDARY WILL ALSO
SHIFT THE GREATEST TORNADO THREAT AND ALL INTERESTS SHOULD MONITOR
THE EVOLUTION OF THIS SITUATION CLOSELY.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
EMERGENCY MANAGERS AND STORM SPOTTERS SHOULD BE READY OF AN EXTENDED
PERIOD OF ACTIVATION TONIGHT AND BE READY FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF A
SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSIONS FROM THIS OFFICE WILL CONTINUE TO DETAIL THE
EXPECTED POTENTIAL.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.
THURSDAY...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
FRIDAY...VERY HIGH FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL.
SATURDAY...VERY HIGH FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL.
SUNDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL...VERY HIGH FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL.
MONDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL...VERY HIGH FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL.
TUESDAY...VERY HIGH FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
THE SEVERE WEATHER RISK WILL CONTINUE INTO THURSDAY...BOTH WITH
ONGOING MORNING THUNDERSTORMS AND WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS WHICH
DEVELOP IN THE AFTERNOON. ANY AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS WILL PRIMARILY
BE A HAIL THREAT.

THE NEXT STRONG STORM SYSTEM APPROACHES DURING THE WEEKEND WITH
CONTINUED THUNDERSTORM CHANCES...WHILE STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS
TYPICAL OF SPRINGTIME FUEL FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE...AND LATER FORECASTS SHOULD
CONTINUE TO BE CLOSELY MONITORED.
