THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...NORTHEAST
TEXAS...SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS...NORTHWEST AND NORTH CENTRAL LOUISIANA.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...

SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED
AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT ACROSS ALL OF THE FOUR STATE
REGION...AHEAD OF A SLOW MOVING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE
THAT WILL SLOWLY TRANSLATE EAST ACROSS SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...EXTREME
NORTHEAST TEXAS...AND SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS.  SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL BE MOST NUMEROUS ACROSS EXTREME NORTHEAST TEXAS...SOUTHEAST
OKLAHOMA...AND SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS ALONG THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS...AND
WILL CARRY THE POTENTIAL FOR PRODUCING LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...AND
FLASH FLOODING.  GIVEN THAT THE GROUND REMAINS SATURATED IN WAKE OF
EARLIER RAINFALL THIS PAST WEEKEND...THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN
EXTENDED THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON...AND SHIFTED NORTH INTO EXTREME
NORTHEAST TEXAS AND SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA...WEST OF A BROKEN BOW
OKLAHOMA...TO DAINGERFIELD...TO LONGVIEW TEXAS LINE.  ADDITIONAL
RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF ONE TO THREE INCHES ARE EXPECTED...WITH ISOLATED
FIVE INCH AMOUNTS POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY WHERE THUNDERSTORMS MOVE
REPEATEDLY OVER THE SAME AREAS.  AS A RESULT...FLOODING MAY DEVELOP
IN OR NEAR THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH AREA.  ELSEWHERE...SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP LATER THIS MORNING WITH ADDED DAYTIME
HEATING...AND WILL SPREAD NORTH NORTHEAST ACROSS DEEP EAST TEXAS AND
NORTH LOUISIANA.  NO STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME SEVERE.
HOWEVER...GIVEN THAT THE AIR MASS IN PLACE IS STILL SATURATED...
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE THE MAIN THREAT IN THE STRONGER
STORMS.  THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DIMINISH
AFTER SUNSET...BUT ADDITIONAL REDEVELOPMENT WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE
OVERNIGHT...AS THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS REMAINS OVER THE AREA.
AREA RESIDENTS ARE URGED TO KEEP ABREAST TO THE LATEST STATEMENTS AND
ANY FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE
CONCERNING THIS SLOW MOVING WEATHER SYSTEM.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST AGAIN
TUESDAY...AS THIS WEAKENING UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM SLOWLY PUSHES SOUTH
AND EAST ACROSS EAST TEXAS AND NORTH LOUISIANA.  NO STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO BECOME SEVERE.  LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE THE MAIN
THREAT THOUGH FROM THE STRONGER STORMS...WHICH COULD PRODUCE FLOODING
OF LOW LYING...POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.  THIS THREAT WILL BEGIN TO END
TUESDAY EVENING...AS THE REMNANTS OF THIS SYSTEM EXITS THE REGION.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN SPOTTER...EMERGENCY MANAGER...AND HAM RADIO OPERATOR
ACTIVATION...MAY BE NEEDED THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.
