Significant tornado risk in Arklatex region…increasing flash flood risks

Hi everyone, we’ve got a rapidly evolving severe weather situation as several supercells have developed over northeast Texas. A couple of tornadoes have already been reported, and the environment looks very favorable for the next few hours in this area. Additional significant severe weather risk is in place and expected to increase into tonight northeast from this region through the lower Ohio Valley. Meanwhile, multiple areas are under an increasing flash flood risk this evening, including the St. Louis, Springfield, MO and Fort Smith areas.
