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

DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

A THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX IN EASTERN OKLAHOMA...ASSOCIATED WITH AN 
UPPER LEVEL LOW...WILL MOVE TO THE NORTHEAST THIS MORNING. THIS WILL 
ALLOW SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP AND MOVE ACROSS 
MAINLY NORTHWEST ARKANSAS THIS MORNING. A COLD FRONT IN THE GREAT 
PLAINS STATES WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST THIS AFTERNOON. SHOWERS AND 
THUNDERSTORMS WILL FORM ALONG AND AHEAD OF THIS FRONT. THE NORTHWEST 
HALF OF ARKANSAS IS UNDER A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS 
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...MAINLY NORTHWEST OF A LINE FROM HOT 
SPRINGS...TO CONWAY...TO SALEM. THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF LARGE HAIL 
AND DAMAGING WINDS...ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...IN 
NORTHWEST ARKANSAS WITH THIS COLD FRONT. THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE 
STATE WILL SEE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...BUT RAINFALL 
AMOUNTS WILL BE LIMITED. DUE TO THE SATURATED GROUND IN NORTHERN 
ARKANSAS...ANY RAINFALL RECEIVED COULD AGGRAVATE THE FLOODING 
CONCERNS.

DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE STATE SATURDAY...THE POTENTIAL 
FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN MOVES TO THE SOUTHEAST. MUCH OF THE STATE IS 
UNDER A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY...AS THE FRONT 
WILL SLOWLY MOVE THROUGH THE STATE. UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL 
INTERACT WITH THE FRONT SATURDAY...AND INCREASE THE CHANCE FOR HEAVY 
RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF THE STATE. WITH SOME 
RIVERS IN EASTERN ARKANSAS STILL ABOVE FLOOD STAGE FROM THE HEAVY 
RAINS LAST WEEK...ANY RAINFALL WILL AGGRAVATE OR PROLONG FLOODING. 
AREAS EAST OF LITTLE ROCK WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL OF SEEING ONE TO 
TWO INCHES OF RAINFALL THROUGH SATURDAY.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE INTO THE STATE SUNDAY...BRINGING DRY WEATHER 
AND COOL TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE NORTHWEST HALF OF THE 
STATE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...AND ACROSS THE ENTIRE STATE ON 
SATURDAY.
