Arklatex Could See Hail, High Winds, Possible Floods Thru Wednesday
The National Weather Service in Shreveport is warning that most of the Arklatex could potentially see some really nasty weather over the next couple of days.

According to the NWS forecasters, strong to severe thunderstorms and excessive heavy rainfall, possibly resulting in at least isolated flash flooding will be possible late today and tonight, so they have issued a Hazardous Weather Outlook for south central Arkansas, southwest Arkansas, north central Louisiana, northwest Louisiana, southeast Oklahoma, east Texas and northeast Texas.
Showers and thunderstorms will become widespread late today and will continue through at least Wednesday. Strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible during this forecasted period with large hail, damaging thunderstorm wind gusts and isolated tornadoes all possible as well. Excessive, heavy rainfall could result in flash flood concerns for our area as well.
The National Weather Service also warns that today's storms are just the start of this potential damaging weather. They are forecasting multiple rounds of heavy rainfall from this afternoon through at least Wednesday morning.
With widespread rainfall totals of 3 to 6 inches expected, the Arklatex area could also see scattered pockets of 6 to 8 inches. Isolated higher amounts are possible.
This will likely result in a widespread threat for flooding. Therefore, a Flood Watch has been issued for the entire Arklatex area from Monday afternoon through Wednesday morning.
Low lying and flood prone areas will be of the greatest flood concern with additional rises on all area waterways very probable as well.
