This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for southern Arkansas, for 
northern Louisiana, for eastern Texas and southeast Oklahoma.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight...

A Heat Advisory is in effect today with our four state area 
temperatures this afternoon averaging in the upper 90s. When the 
humidity is factored in, the feels like or heat index temperature 
ranges will be from 105 and 110 degrees. The best practices for 
work or play in this kind of heat include wearing light colored 
and light weight, loose fitting clothing; drinking plenty of 
water before, during and after exposure to the heat; also by 
limiting the time spent outdoors or at least taking more frequent
shade breaks, or some time in the A C. There will be a chance for
afternoon and early evening showers and thunderstorms, coverage 
will be isolated in our North to scattered across our South.

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

The heat will continue into midweek with the Heat Advisory in 
effect through Wednesday. Otherwise, scattered showers and 
thunderstorms will be on the up tick on overall coverage into the
weekend. A weak front will approach and weaken the heat ridge in 
the upper air. We can also expect that a weak low area of broad 
low pressure over the Gulf coast will help to keep the air muggy, 
good for developing some heavier rainfall totals. 

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Activation of emergency management personnel...amateur radio
operators and storm spotters will not be needed through tonight.
