Hazardous Weather Outlook National Weather Service Little Rock AR 955 AM CDT Thu Aug 16 2018 ARZ003>007-012>016-021>025-030>034-037>047-052>057-062>069-171000- 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- 955 AM CDT Thu Aug 16 2018 This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for a Large Part of Arkansas. .DAY ONE...Today and Tonight Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected later this afternoon and evening, especially across northern sections of the state. A few storms will approach severe limits, with gusty winds the primary concern. The focus will then turn to the possibility of heavy rain tonight and into Friday. An upper level impulse and a very moist airmass will likely result in areas of heavy rain across the northern and especially the northwest parts of the state. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday Through Wednesday Showers and thunderstorms with potentially heavy rain will be ongoing across mainly the northern part of the state early Friday. Localized flash flooding will remain a concern. The unsettled weather pattern will continue into the weekend and early next week, with chances for showers and thunderstorms each day. Initially, precipitation will be concentrated over northern and central sections of the state. As the week progresses, rain will affect the southern counties as well. The main headliner in the coming days will be the heavy rain potential. Widespread two to four inch amounts are expected across the northern and central counties, and there could be locally more. Given this much rain, high water problems could become an issue. .Spotter Information Statement... Limited spotter activation may be required this afternoon and evening. && Visit NWS Little Rock on the web. Go to http://weather.gov/lzk.
