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

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

A volatile airmass will be in place across much of the Four State
Region. An upper level disturbance will move our way from the
west, interact with this airmass and the end result will be severe
thunderstorms, some of which will produce very large hail,
destructive thunderstorm wind gusts and isolated tornadoes, some
of which could be long tracked tornadoes. This threat will begin
to taper off somewhat early this afternoon but rematerialize near
and north of the Interstate 20 Corridor of Northeast Texas,
Southeast Oklahoma, Southwest Arkansas and extreme Northern
Louisiana as the upper trough itself moves overhead. The severe
weather theat will then diminish late this evening across the
entire Four State Region.

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

No hazardous weather is anticipated at this time.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Activation of emergency management personnel...amateur radio
operators...and storm spotters will be needed today into this
evening for severe thunderstorms. Please relay any information
about observed severe weather to the NWS while following all
local, state, and CDC guidelines.
