THESE STORMS WILL LIKELY BECOME SEVERE WITH VERY LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS. IN ADDITION...ANY DISCRETE STORMS THAT INITIALLY
TAKE A MORE EASTWARD TRACK COMPARED TO THE MEAN FLOW WILL POSE AN
ELEVATED TORNADO RISK.

THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE MAY BEGIN TO DECREASE BY LATE EVENING SOUTH OF
THE STALLED FRONT WITH ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT NORTH OF
THE FRONT OVERNIGHT ACROSS FAR NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA.  THESE STORMS
COULD ALSO BE MARGINALLY SEVERE WITH A FLASH FLOODING THREAT...
ESPECIALLY IN LOCATIONS WHERE PREVIOUS RAINFALL HAS OCCURRED.

AFTERNOON.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL.
THURSDAY...NO HAZARDS.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
THE UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA
AND NORTHWEST ARKANSAS THIS WEEKEND AND INTO MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT STALLS OVER THE REGION TONIGHT WILL LINGER
THROUGH THE WEEKEND BEFORE A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE FINALLY
PUSHES IT OFF TO THE SOUTH AND EAST MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY.
DURING THIS TIME...SEVERAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE POSSIBLE AS A SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVE ACROSS THE
AREA. STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE MAINLY ALONG
AND SOUTH OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. THERE WILL ALSO BE A POTENTIAL
FOR HEAVY FLOODING RAINS AS STORMS REPEATEDLY MOVE OVER THE SAME
LOCATIONS.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OFFICIALS SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE POTENTIAL
OF SEVERAL ROUNDS OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND HEAVY RAINS WHICH COULD
LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING AND POSSIBLY RIVER FLOODING.
