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

DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN ENTRENCHED OVER THE AREA TODAY SETTING THE 
STAGE FOR ANOTHER DAY OF HOT TEMPERATURES AND OPPRESSIVE HUMIDITY. 
THE COMBINATION OF HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL PRODUCE AFTERNOON HEAT 
VALUES THAT WILL RANGE FROM 95 TO 100 DEGREES OVER THE NORTH AND AS 
HIGH AS 103 TO 108 DEGREES OVER THE SOUTH. THIS TYPE OF HEAT CAN BE 
DANGEROUS AND ALL OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES SHOULD BE CURTAILED TO AVOID 
HEAT EXHAUSTION. BE SURE TO DRINK PLENTY OF WATER AND REMAIN IN AIR 
CONDITIONING IF AT ALL POSSIBLE.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO FIRE UP IN THE HEAT OF THE 
AFTERNOON BUT LITTLE RELIEF IS EXPECTED AS THEY WILL BE WIDELY 
SCATTERED IN NATURE. THE MAJORITY OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL 
DISSIPATE WITH THE LOSS OF DAY TIME HEATING. THE LONE EXCEPTION WILL 
BE OVER THE NORTH WHERE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL 
PERSIST THROUGH THE NIGHT.

AFTER MIDNIGHT...PRECIPITATION OVER THE NORTHERN PART OF THE STATE 
WILL BE TRIGGERED BY A COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE NORTHWEST. 
THE FRONT WILL BARELY ENTER THE EXTREME NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE 
STATE BY THE END OF THE NIGHT WITH PRECIPITATION CHANCES INCREASING 
TOWARDS MORNING. NO SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED THROUGH TONIGHT. 

DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

THE AFOREMENTIONED FRONT WILL ENTER NORTHWEST ARKANSAS EARLY 
SATURDAY AND SLOWLY PRESS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE STATE DURING 
THE DAY AND NIGHT. THE FRONT IS NOT EXPECTED TO CLEAR THE SOUTHERN 
BORDER UNTIL EARLY SUNDAY.

THE FRONT WILL PRODUCE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS 
THE ENTIRE AREA SATURDAY AS IT CRUISES THROUGH. THE PRECIPITATION 
WILL BEGIN TO TAPER OFF FROM NORTH TO SOUTH LATE SATURDAY AS THE 
FRONT PULLS OUT AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND IT. THE 
PRECIPITATION WILL LINGER THROUGH SUNDAY ACROSS THE SOUTH. 

WHILE SOME OF THE STORMS MAY BECOME STRONG ...NO ORGANIZED OR 
WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED. A GENERAL ONE HALF INCH TO 
ONE INCH RAIN FALL IS EXPECTED WITH THIS WEATHER SYSTEM. SOME 
LOCALLY HEAVIER AMOUNTS ARE POSSIBLE IN AND NEAR SOME OF THE 
STRONGER STORMS AND OVER THE NORTH...CLOSER TO AN AREA OF LOW 
PRESSURE THAT WILL BE TRAVELING ALONG THE FRONT. DRIER AIR WILL MOVE 
BACK INTO THE STATE IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT WITH TEMPERATURES CLOSE 
TO WHERE THEY SHOULD BE FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.

SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED.
