...SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS FROM SEVERE WEATHER AND FLOODING THROUGH
MONDAY...

This Outlook is for Northwest and West Central Arkansas as well as
much of Eastern Oklahoma.

.DAY ONE...This Evening and Tonight.
TORNADO.
    RISK...Limited.
    AREA...Eastern Oklahoma.
    ONSET...After 9 pm.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORM.
RISK...Elevated.
AREA...Eastern Oklahoma and Northwestern Arkansas.
ONSET...After 9 pm.

FLASH FLOOD and HEAVY RAIN.
RISK...Significant.
AREA...Eastern Oklahoma and Northwestern Arkansas.
ONSET...After 9 pm.

DISCUSSION...
An increase in storm coverage is expected this evening across eastern
Oklahoma, expanding into northwest Arkansas during the late evening
hours. Strong instability and wind shear profiles remain across the
region, which will support an increasing severe weather risk this
evening and persisting through the overnight hours. Additionally, an
outflow boundary will remain across eastern Oklahoma this evening,
which could become a focus for a limited tornado threat. Otherwise,
the overall coverage of storms will steadily increase overnight with
a continued large hail and damaging wind threat. Rainfall accumulations
will continue to increase with another round of widespread and locally
heavy rains. Flooding potential will become more widespread and
potentially significant. Be prepared to take flood safety actions,
especially for any outdoor activities that extend into the overnight
hours.

SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Likely.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Sunday through Friday.
SUNDAY and MONDAY...Severe Thunderstorm Potential...Heavy Rain
Potential.
TUESDAY through FRIDAY...Thunderstorm Potential.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Severe weather may be ongoing early Sunday along with continued heavy
rains and flooding. A similar weather scenario is likely Sunday
afternoon through Monday with thunderstorms developing and expanding
in coverage with a risk of severe weather and additional heavy
rains. The coverage of thunderstorms is forecast to become less by
mid week, however, the weather pattern will remain unsettled and
daily thunderstorm chances continue.
