EVENING...
This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for north central Louisiana,
northwest Louisiana, east Texas and northeast Texas.
.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.
A complex of showers and thunderstorms is expected to shift east
into East Texas after midnight tonight, before entering Western
Louisiana by or shortly before daybreak Thursday ahead of an upper
level disturbance. The threat for locally heavy rainfall will
increase late tonight over Lower East Texas, falling over already
saturated grounds from heavy rain that fell Sunday evening and Monday
morning. This additional heavy rainfall will quickly run off, and
could result in flash flooding. In addition, locally gusty winds will
be possible from the stronger storms.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.
The threat for heavy rainfall will shift east into North Louisiana by
daybreak Thursday, falling over already saturated grounds. Thus, the
threat for flash flooding will exist through the day Thursday, before
diminishing from west to east. However, periods of scattered to
numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected over the region
Friday, before becoming more scattered this weekend. Brief heavy
rainfall and minor flooding of low lying, poor drainage areas will
remain possible this weekend, before drier and hotter conditions
return Monday and Tuesday.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation may be needed late tonight over East Texas.
