This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for southern Arkansas, for
northern Louisiana, for eastern Texas and southeast Oklahoma.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue this morning
North of I-20, slowly shifting southward this afternoon with a
weak cold front which is already approaching I-20. Some of these
storms could produce gusty winds, frequent lightning and heavy
downpours. The slow movement of this activity will allow for some
isolated high rain totals with localized flooding possible.
Overnight, thunderstorm activity will continue sinking South of
I-20. No other hazardous weather is expected at this time.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday...
Thunderstorms will continue to shift well south of I-20 for
Thursday, but begin to lift back northward on Friday. Meanwhile,
the remnant of Harvey is out over open water in the Bay of
Campeche. Harvey still has a very high chance of regaining
tropical storm status in the Western Gulf before making landfall
on the upper Texas coastal bend. Harvey is modeled to move
northeastward into East Texas and South Louisiana this weekend.
At this time, rainfall amounts of one to four inches are expected
in our area, with much higher amounts possible near the center.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Activation of emergency management personnel, amateur radio
operators and storm spotters will not be needed through tonight.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of central
Louisiana, south central Louisiana, southwest Louisiana, west
central Louisiana, and southeast Texas.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Looking for showers and thunderstorms to develop this afternoon
continuing into this evening before dissipating. A cold front
moving through southern Arkansas is expected to move into
Louisiana making the coast around sunrise tomorrow.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday
Thursday will see a return of afternoon showers and thunderstorms.
The real change to our weather is Harvey which is in the Bay of
Campeche. The Hurricane Center expects Harvey to reform back into
a cyclone moving off to the northwest and guidance is suggesting
the storm will make landfall along the central Texas coast by
late Friday The system is expected to stall before moving towards
southeast Texas and into southern Louisiana. This is expected to
produce heavy rains over the weekend and into Monday. Rains are
expected to produce flooding in locations across the region. Five
to eight inches of rain is expected with some locations receiving
higher amounts.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of south central
Alabama...southwest Alabama...northwest Florida and southeast
Mississippi.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Highest heat index values to range from 101 to 105 degrees today.
Storms forecast to develop and become mostly scattered in coverage
through the day today. Some of the storms potentially strong.
Main impacts from storms will be brief strong wind gusts, frequent
lightning and locally heavy rain that may cause instances of
nuisance type flooding in some areas that experience poor
drainage.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday
An increase in rip current hazards looks to set up Friday and into
the weekend, as a potential tropical system lifts up across the
western Gulf late in the week, bringing long period swell into the
surf zone. Elevated rip current hazards may linger into the first
half of next week.
There is at least some potential for a heavy rain and or severe
weather event to occur over the forecast area during the Monday
into Tuesday timeframe. This will be highly dependent on eventual
placement of a weak frontal boundary near the area and how the
surface low from Harvey tracks. Stay tuned.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Activation of SkyWarn Severe Storm Spotter networks is not
expected through Tuesday.
