central Arkansas.

A few storms have also developed near a surface low and cold front
near the Interstate 44 corridor in northeast Oklahoma. Isolated
severe weather will be possible with these storms into the evening

Heavy rainfall will also occur with the storms, with a flash flood

After Wednesday, the pattern will be quiet with temperatures
around the seasonal normals and drier weather expected through
the rest of the week.

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
Emergency managers and area first responders should monitor the
latest information this evening. Given recent rains in some
areas, and the potential for excessive rains through tonight,
preparations for more widespread flooding issues may need to
happen.
