DISCUSSION...
Scattered to numerous thunderstorms will continue this morning
across eastern Oklahoma into western Arkansas, with an elevated
severe weather risk. Large hail to 2 inches in diameter is the
primary threat, with locally damaging winds also possible.
After a relative lull in the storm activity around midday,
thunderstorms are expected to redevelop during the afternoon
across far eastern Oklahoma into western Arkansas near a
retreating frontal boundary, with an elevated to significant risk
of severe weather. If the frontal boundary retreats far enough to
the north, environmental conditions will favor all modes of
severe weather, including large hail, locally damaging winds, and
tornadoes. This threat will shift to the east early this evening.
Multiple rounds of thunderstorms between today and Saturday are
expected to yield rainfall totals in the 4 to 8 inch range across
far southeast Oklahoma into west central Arkansas, with 3 to 5
inches across the rest of southeast Oklahoma into far northwest
Arkansas. Isolated totals over 8 inches are possible. The heavy
rainfall is likely to result in some dangerous flash flooding and
main-stem river flooding that will likely linger into early next
week.
SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT...
Activation of the Regional Spotter Network Expected.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.
SATURDAY...Thunderstorm Potential...High Wind Potential...
Heavy Rain Potential.
SUNDAY...Winter Weather Potential...High Wind Potential.
MONDAY through THURSDAY...No Hazards.
EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
Rain may mix with or change to snow across parts of northeast
Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas before ending late Saturday night
into early Sunday. As mentioned above, main-stem river flooding
will likely linger into early next week, otherwise an extended
period of quiet weather is expected next week.
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING STATEMENT...
Severe weather and flooding impacts are likely to impact parts of
eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas now through the weekend.
Multiple periods of response may be required.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.
Weather hazards expected...
Moderate tornado risk.
Enhanced hail risk.
Slight thunderstorm wind damage risk.
Significant lightning risk.
Extreme excessive rainfall risk
Limited non thunderstorm wind risk.
DISCUSSION...
Thunderstorms will move back into the area this morning and

stronger storms this morning. As a warm front approaches the area,
hail to the size of quarters will be possible earlier in the
afternoon. If the front can make it into south central Missouri
later this afternoon, then all modes of severe storms will be
possible south of that front including tornadoes and large hail to
the size of golf balls.
In addition to the severe storm potential, very heavy rain and
flooding will be possible today and tonight, with the best chances
for excessive rain and flooding, along and southeast of the
Interstate 44 corridor.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.
Heavy rainfall and flooding is likely to continue on Saturday.
Storm system total amounts of at least 3 to 6 inches, with higher
amounts of 8 to 10 inches are possible. This could result in
significant flooding and flash flooding. A Flood Watch is in
effect for areas along and southeast of Interstate 44.
Cold temperatures will move into the area late in the weekend
which could bring sub-freezing temperatures on Sunday night and
again on Monday night.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation may be needed this afternoon and this evening
over south central Missouri, most likely southeast of a Branson to
Salem line.
