across southeast Oklahoma and west central Arkansas where the

with the stronger storms will increase the threat for both flash
flooding and main stem river flooding across the entire area.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...
The active weather pattern will continue this week with chances
for storms through Wednesday night. The higher severe weather
chances will come Monday with storms that develop to the west
along a dryline, and again Wednesday along a cold front. For
Monday, all modes of severe, including tornadoes will be possible
along with the potential for some significant severe weather late
Monday afternoon and into Monday night.

Storms that develop along a cold front Wednesday will also have
severe potential Wednesday afternoon and evening. Storm chances
are expected to diminish later in the work week as drier and
cooler air filters in behind the departing cold front.
