Saturday: A weak boundary will be moving from south to north during the day on Saturday with an increase in clouds and the possibility of a few stray showers. Severe weather does not appear to be a threat although a thunderstorm could develop. Overall, the majority of the area will stay dry, windy, & warm with highs in the 80s to near 90.

Sunday: Widespread severe weather will develop in Central Oklahoma and Central Kansas in response to strong upper level energy and a dryline advancing east. These storms will be supercells with tornadoes possible. The storms will move NE and will eventually merge into a complex that will affect NE Oklahoma and potentially NWA last Sunday night. Most of our area will be dry and very warm on Sunday with highs near 90.

Monday/Tuesday Severe Weather: The leftover boundaries from the Sunday night's storms will continue in the area on Monday with peak daytime heating and another upper level jet stream disturbance... another round of strong to severe storms is possible including strong storms capable of tornadoes in Northwest Arkansas and the Fort Smith area. The timing would be evening into the overnight. Severe storms will also be possible on Tuesday before the threat ends as cooler and drier air moves in around midweek.
