The main threat with these thunderstorms will be damaging wind gusts and heavy rainfall. Large hail can also not be ruled out and a few tornadoes could develop in the embedded line of storms. Furthermore, if you are camping on area lakes, rivers, and streams you need to have multiple ways to receive watches and warnings as well (those ways do need to be able to effectively wake you up) as bodies of water may rise quickly, especially with these types of rainfall setups which can produce a significant amount of rainfall in a short period of time. River flooding and flash flooding will be a concern within the most efficient rainfall producing cells. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday An active pattern will continue into Sunday and Monday with chances for showers and thunderstorms. Several rounds of rainfall may develop as a result, with some areas of heavy rainfall becoming possible for portions of the state. A few strong to severe thunderstorms may be seen with this activity, with the greatest chance for severe weather on Sunday. .Spotter Information Statement... Spotter activation may be needed this morning, && Visit NWS Little Rock on the web. Go to http://weather.gov/lzk.
