Hazardous Weather Outlook National Weather Service Little Rock AR 342 AM CDT Mon Aug 20 2018 ARZ003>007-012>016-021>025-030>034-037>047-052>057-062>069-211000- Boone-Marion-Baxter-Fulton-Sharp-Newton-Searcy-Stone-Izard- Independence-Johnson-Pope-Van Buren-Cleburne-Jackson-Logan-Conway- Faulkner-White-Woodruff-Scott-Yell-Perry-Polk-Montgomery-Garland- Saline-Pulaski-Lonoke-Prairie-Monroe-Pike-Clark-Hot Spring-Grant- Jefferson-Arkansas-Dallas-Cleveland-Lincoln-Desha-Ouachita- Calhoun-Bradley-Drew- 342 AM CDT Mon Aug 20 2018 This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for a Large Part of Arkansas. .DAY ONE...Today and Tonight Showers and thunderstorms will continue today, with the highest chances over the southeast half of Arkansas. A few strong to severe thunderstorms are possible. Damaging wind gusts would be the primary concern with any severe thunderstorms, though there is also a smaller hail and tornado threat. Due to a high amount of moisture in the atmosphere, and the tendency of storms to form and move over the same areas, stronger storms will also be capable of producing heavy rainfall. This could lead to localized flooding issues, particularly in portions of western, north central, and southeast Arkansas that have seen several inches of rain in the last 24 hours. Storms are expected to diminish during the evening hours. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday No additional hazardous weather is expected at this time. .Spotter Information Statement... Spotter activation could be needed over eastern or southeast Arkansas today. && Visit NWS Little Rock on the web. Go to http://weather.gov/lzk. 57
