...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 290 IN EFFECT UNTIL 4 PM CDT THIS
AFTERNOON...

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

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

Strong to severe thunderstorms are expected again today and through
tonight as a stationary front continues to linger across the region.
Very large hail 2 inches in diameter or greater and damaging winds
will be the primary threats, but an isolated tornado cannot be
completely ruled out across parts of the I-20 and I-30 corridors.
Finally, areas of heavy rainfall may also pose a threat of localized
flash flooding with thunderstorms that train over the same areas,
mainly along and north of the I-20 corridor.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.

The potential for scattered thunderstorms will persist through the
remainder of this week as a frontal boundary is expected to remain
nearly stationary and linger across the region. Although the threat
of severe weather is expected to gradually diminish by late week, a
few strong to marginally severe thunderstorms cannot be ruled out.

By this weekend and into early next week, thunderstorm chances will
largely decrease while temperatures increase into the mid and upper
90s to near 100 degrees with heat advisory conditions likely.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will likely be needed today through tonight.
