Thunderstorms will continue across far southeast Oklahoma through mid evening. The strongest storms will be capable of producing damaging winds and heavy rain. Localized flash flooding remains possible.
A front will bring some relief for many locations Tuesday and Wednesday. By the end of the week, hot conditions will return and then persist across eastern Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas into the upcoming week. Please know the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. To avoid heat illness, wear loose-fitting and light-colored clothing, stay hydrated, and take breaks when outdoors.
Rain and thunderstorm chances continue into the upcoming week. Any storms that develop may produce dangerous lightning, locally heavy rainfall, and gusty winds. Hail may occasionally be a concern with the strongest storms, as well.
