With all of yesterday's rain, parts of the area may see fog development early this morning, continuing a couple of hours past sunrise. Areas south and east of I-44 have the highest chance to see visibilities under half a mile, largely ranging from a 40 to 70 percent chance. Favored locations northwest of I-44 also have a similar chance to see localized fog. Remain alert for rapid changes in visibility over short distances, and perhaps bank an extra few minutes into your morning commute.

Another hot day is in store for eastern Oklahoma and west-central Arkansas, with heat indices climbing up to 105 degrees, locally higher. Please take precautions to avoid heat illness.

Drier conditions are forecast today and Thursday, before higher rain and storm chances return Friday and this weekend. This will maintain a threat for lightning, locally heavy downpours and gusty winds. Afternoon high temperatures and heat indices will remain elevated through the end of the week, leading to an uptick in the potential for heat stress impacts. Continue to monitor forecasts and be prepared to seek indoor shelter during thunder and lightning. Take heat precautions if working outdoors or during outdoor recreation.

Widespread triple digit heat index values remain forecast for both Thursday and Friday, leading to an increase in the potential for heat stress and heat illnesses for those not taking precautions or spending extended periods outdoors.
