MUCH OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA.

DISCUSSION...
A COMPLEX OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT MUCH
OF NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA...MOVING INTO SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST
ARKANSAS THIS AFTERNOON. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE THE MAIN
THREAT HOWEVER A FEW OF THESE STORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE WITH LARGE
HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. DANGEROUS HEAT INDEX VALUES OF AROUND 100
DEGREES WILL ALSO BE LIKELY SOUTHEAST OF THE THUNDERSTORM LINE.

ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP TO OUR SOUTHWEST
THIS EVENING AND EVENTUALLY GROW INTO A LARGE COMPLEX THAT WILL
AFFECT MUCH OF EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS OVERNIGHT.
HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLASH FLOODING WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREATS...
WITH CURRENT DATA SUGGESTING THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL AXIS NEAR OR JUST
SOUTH OF THE I-44 CORRIDOR. THERE WILL ALSO BE A LIMITED THREAT OF
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS WITH THIS COMPLEX EARLY TONIGHT.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
ACTIVATION OF THE REGIONAL SPOTTER NETWORK LIKELY...ESPECIALLY
OVERNIGHT DUE TO THE FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH
COVERS PARTS OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH EARLY TUESDAY AFTERNOON.
ADDITIONAL AREAS MAY BE ADDED TO THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH LATER
TODAY OR TONIGHT. PLEASE REFER TO THE LATEST FLOOD STATEMENT
/OKCFFATSA/ FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
HEAVY RAINFALL WILL LIKELY BE ONGOING TUESDAY MORNING BEFORE THE
THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX MOVES OUT OF THE AREA DURING THE DAY. THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN IN THE AREA WEDNESDAY BUT BECOME LESS
DEFINED...WITH THUNDERSTORMS BECOMING INCREASINGLY ISOLATED AND
FOCUSED MORE IN THE HIGHER TERRAIN AREAS OF SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND
NORTHWEST ARKANSAS. ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY MAY APPROACH THE
AREA BY NEXT WEEKEND AND BRING AN INCREASED CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS. LOW SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL WILL BE
ASSOCIATED WITH THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...THOUGH BRIEF AND
LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL WILL REMAIN A POSSIBILITY.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
FLASH FLOODING COULD BE ONGOING EARLY TUESDAY MORNING...WITH RIVER
FLOODING ALSO A CONCERN INTO MID WEEK.
