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

DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

A WARM FRONT WAS LOCATED IN SOUTHERN MISSOURI ON THE LATEST WEATHER 
MAP. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE LIFTING SLOWLY NORTHWARD 
THIS AFTERNOON. THE AIRMASS SOUTH OF THE FRONT HAS WARMED AND BECOME 
MORE UNSTABLE. MUCH OF ARKANSAS IS IN A MODERATE RISK FOR SEVERE 
WEATHER THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.  

THE MAIN STORM SYSTEM IN WEST TEXAS IS FORECAST TO TRACK 
NORTHEASTWARD THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT TRAILING 
SOUTHWARD FROM THE LOW WILL APPROACH ARKANSAS THIS EVENING AND MOVE 
ACROSS THE STATE TONIGHT. AS THE FRONT MOVES INTO THE WARM AND 
UNSTABLE AIRMASS...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP THIS 
AFTERNOON AND EVENTUALLY PUSH INTO SOUTHWEST ARKANSAS DURING THE 
LATE AFTERNOON HOURS. THE STORMS ARE LIKELY TO REACH SEVERE LEVELS 
QUICKLY.

THE STORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF ARKANSAS TONIGHT. IT 
APPEARS THAT SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE MOST LIKELY ACROSS CENTRAL AND 
SOUTHERN SECTIONS OF THE STATE. THE MAIN SEVERE WEATHER THREATS WILL 
BE DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL...WITH ISOLATED TORNADOES POSSIBLE 
AS WELL.

THIS WILL BE THE FIRST SIGNIFICANT EVENT OF THE SEVERE WEATHER 
SEASON. PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATURAL STATE ARE ADVISED TO PREPARE FOR 
SEVERE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. CHECK THE LATEST 
FORECAST...AND LOOK FOR FURTHER STATEMENTS FROM YOUR NATIONAL 
WEATHER SERVICE.

DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY

NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME. 

SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

TONIGHT AS THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER INCREASES.
