THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR A LARGE PART OF ARKANSAS.

DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

A HEAT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT TODAY FOR CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN 
ARKANSAS. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 90S...AND 
WITH HIGH HUMIDITY LEVELS...HEAT INDEX VALUES OF 105 TO 110 CAN BE 
EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON. PEOPLE PLANNING TO BE OUTDOORS TODAY WILL 
NEED TO TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID HEAT RELATED ILLNESS.

PATCHY FOG WILL BE NOTED THIS MORNING...REDUCING VISIBILITIES IN 
SOME AREAS. THE FOG WILL LIFT ACROSS THE STATE BY MID MORNING.

DUE TO THE HOT TEMPERATURES AND HIGH MOISTURE LEVELS...SCATTERED 
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP DURING THE AFTERNOON...MAINLY 
IN CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE STATE. WHILE THESE ARE NOT 
EXPECTED TO BE SEVERE...WIND GUSTS UP TO 30 MPH AND HEAVY RAINFALL 
CAN NOT BE RULED OUT.

DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH LABOR DAY

HOT AND HUMID WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THURSDAY. HOWEVER...WITH 
HIGHER MOISTURE LEVELS...AFTERNOON CLOUDS AND COVERAGE OF

A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE AREA FRIDAY...AND COULD BRING RELIEF 
FROM THE HEAT...AS WELL AS MUCH NEEDED RAINFALL. THE LATEST DATA 
INDICATE A SLOWER MOVEMENT TO THE FRONT...SO DETAILS WILL BE GIVEN 
AS MORE DATA BECOMES AVAILABLE.
