This Outlook is for Northwest and West Central Arkansas as well as much of Eastern Oklahoma.
DAY ONE
Today and Tonight. DANGEROUS HEAT. RISK
Significant. AREA
Eastern Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas. ONSET
Midday. AREA AT GREATEST RISK
Northeast Oklahoma to Arkansas River Valley of West Central Arkansas. DISCUSSION
Dangerous heat conditions continue across eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas with heat index values 105 to 110 degrees this afternoon. Conditions begin to slowly improve this evening, though little heat relief is expected overnight tonight. SPOTTER AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ACTION STATEMENT
Spotter Activation Not Expected.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN
Sunday through Friday. SUNDAY AND MONDAY
Thunderstorm Potential
Dangerous Heat Potential. TUESDAY
Dangerous Heat Potential. WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY
Thunderstorm Potential
Dangerous Heat Potential. EXTENDED DISCUSSION
Ongoing dangerous heat and heat stress persist into Sunday while a weak frontal boundary sags southward into the region. Moisture pooling along this boundary will help to create heat index values of 105 to 110 degrees and locally higher again Sunday afternoon. Isolated to scattered shower and thunderstorm chances develop with the frontal boundary Sunday late afternoon and remain possible into Monday. Localized strong downburst winds look to be the main threat with the stronger storms. The greater potential is forecast over northeast Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas. Additional storm chances return during the second half of next week as the ridge of high pressure tries to retreat westward. Even with the rain chances through the upcoming week, hot and humid conditions remain forecast as well for eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas. weather.gov/tulsa contains additional information.
