This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for south central Arkansas,
southwest Arkansas, north central Louisiana, northwest Louisiana,
southeast Oklahoma and northeast Texas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

Isolated to widely scattered strong to severe thunderstorms will be
possible, mainly this evening and mainly north and west of the I-30
Corridor which includes far Northeast Texas and adjacent sections of
Southeast Oklahoma. Large hail and damaging thunderstorm wind gusts
would be the main threats, if and when these thunderstorms develop
and move into the Middle Red River Valley of Northeast Texas and
Southeast Oklahoma later this evening. Otherwise, no hazardous
weather is expected.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.

Strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible across much of the
region on Wednesday, continuing through late Thursday into Thursday
Night as a series of disturbances moves our way. Damaging wind gusts
and large hail appear to be the main threats along with locally heavy
rainfall which could result in some isolated flooding threats,
especially across low lying and flood prone areas near and north of
the I-30 Corridor.

Small thunderstorm chances remain in the forecast for the upcoming
Memorial Holiday Weekend with hot temperatures as well during the
afternoon. Heat indices both Saturday and Sunday will likely reach
the triple digits across some areas. A cold front should move
through the region on Memorial Day or Monday Night, bringing with it
additional thunderstorm chances.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation may become necessary across far Southeast Oklahoma
and Northeast Texas this evening.
