DISCUSSION...
A LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WAS ACCELERATING ACROSS
SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND WESTERN ARKANSAS EARLY THIS MORNING. STRONG
DAMAGING WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED WITH THIS LINE OF STORMS INTO THE
EARLY MORNING HOURS. STRONG LOW-LEVEL SHEAR ALONG THE EDGE OF
THUNDERSTORMS AND THE RETREATING WARM FRONT WILL RESULT IN A SMALL
TORNADO THREAT WITH THE LINE OF STORMS. THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT
SHOULD END BY MID-MORNING.

IT REMAINS UNCERTAIN HOW FAR EAST THE DRYLINE WILL MIX BY THIS
AFTERNOON. REDEVELOP OF THUNDERSTORMS...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR
SEVERE WEATHER...IS POSSIBLE AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON. THE MOST LIKELY AREA
FOR THIS TO OCCUR WILL BE ACROSS WESTERN ARKANSAS.

IN ADDITION...WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL WILL CONTINUE INTO THE
MORNING. MUCH OF THE AREA HAS RECEIVED BETWEEN 2 AND 4 INCHES OF
RAINFALL OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS...AND AN ADDITIONAL 1 TO 3 INCHES
WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH THE MID-MORNING. SIGNIFICANT RIVER FLOODING
WILL CONTINUE OVER PARTS OF THE REGION AND A FLASH FLOOD WATCH
REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH TODAY.

CLEARING SKIES BEHIND THE DRYLINE WILL RESULT IN STRONG ATMOSPHERIC
MIXING BY THIS AFTERNOON...WITH GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS DEVELOPING
ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL BE NEEDED.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...NO HAZARDS.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
A PERIOD OF QUIET WEATHER IS ON TAP FOR THE WEEKEND AND MUCH OF NEXT
WEEK. A LIGHT FREEZE MAY BE POSSIBLE ACROSS PARTS OF NORTHEAST
OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS SUNDAY MORNING.
