AT 7Z...A STATIONARY BOUNDARY EXTENDED FROM FROM AN

OVER NORTHWEST ARKANSAS BY EARLY AFTERNOON. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS MID-LEVEL LOW WERE CURRENTLY ACROSS WESTERN

THESE ELEVATED STORMS TO BECOME STRONG THIS MORNING WITH SMALL HAIL THE
MAIN CONCERN. THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO END THIS

TO BE STRONG TO SEVERE.

MONDAY AND TUESDAY OF NEXT WEEK LOOK TO BE DRY AS HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE REGION IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING
WEEKEND STORM SYSTEM.
