This is directly from our forecasters. I've been here 13 years and they haven't been wrong yet. This is discussing West Arkansas, NWLA, and NETX
So no squall line, which is good, but if you get in the path of one of the cells, you're in bad shape.

As a strong upper-air wave approaches the region late this afternoon coverage of severe t-storms should to become more numerous as they push into the ArkLaTex. Still…individual storm cells rather than a solid line of severe storms is expected…so only moderate utility problems are expected this afternoon into tonight. A squall line with widespread damage is not expected. The severe weather threat will end quickly this evening across the Fayetteville District but will linger after sunset over the rest of NWLA & NETX.

I knew what you were getting at, but it had to be done. I have no idea exactly where.

1st tornado watch of the day coming shortly for the ArkLaTex. Southern Arky / N. La is pretty much free of storms at this point and the area between I-20 and I-30 could be under the gun later.

One of the things that can focus tornadoes is a tight temperature gradient. Right now temps are in the low 70s - 60s north of that line and in the 80s to the south. The position of that gradient later today will depend on how fast those storms to the north move out. That will be an interesting area to watch later today.

With the wind right now in shreveport, I got a good feeling my pecan tree isn't gonna make it through another storm. I got the chainsaw gassed up...
