This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of south central
Arkansas, southwest Arkansas, north central Louisiana, northwest
Louisiana, east Texas and northeast Texas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight...

Scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain possible this
morning across much of East Texas, Northwest Louisiana, and
Southwest Arkansas, but coverage and intensity is expected to
increase this afternoon as the parent upper level storm system
begins to lift east northeast into Eastcentral Texas. While
isolated severe thunderstorms containing large hail will be
possible this morning across portions of these areas, the
potential for severe thunderstorms will increase this afternoon
across East Texas, North Louisiana, and Southern Arkansas, with
damaging winds, large hail, isolated tornadoes, and locally heavy
rainfall possible. Where the heavier rain falls repeatedly over
the same areas, localized flash flooding will also be possible.
The severe weather threat will gradually diminish from southwest
to northeast later this evening, although the threat for locally
heavy rainfall will linger overnight across portions of East
Texas, Northwest Louisiana, and Southwest Arkansas near the
center of this storm system.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday...

Showers and isolated thunderstorms will begin to diminish from
west to east Monday, as the parent storm system continues to shift
east out of the area. While much warmer and drier conditions are
expected for much of this week, showers and a few embedded
thunderstorms will increase across the region Saturday.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Activation of emergency managers, spotter networks, and amateur
radio operators, will be needed today and tonight.

afternoon and evening across Southeast Oklahoma and portions of
extreme Northeast Texas and Southwest Arkansas, with damaging
winds, large hail, and locally heavy rainfall possible. Where the
heavier rains move repeatedly over the same areas, localized flash
flooding will be possible. The severe weather threat will diminish
later this evening, but the threat for locally heavy rainfall will
persist through tonight.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday...
