Storms will return this evening from the west, impacting northern zones of the ArkLaTex by morning, with more thunderstorms to follow early Sunday.

Hot temperatures and high humidity will result in heat indices ranging from 105 to 110 degrees. The heat may become dangerous due to widespread power outages from severe thunderstorms that affected the region Friday morning.

Another round of strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible tonight, especially north of Interstate 20. The primary threats will be damaging winds, large hail, and locally heavy rainfall.

Sunday through Friday

Another upper-level disturbance riding along and north of the a stationary front will focus additional showers and thunderstorms across the region Sunday. Some of these storms could again be severe, with damaging winds, large hail, and locally heavy rainfall the primary threats. You can not rule out an isolated tornado. Afternoon
high temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 90s Sunday through Wednesday, and when combined with the high humidity, will result in afternoon heat indices between 105 and 110 degrees across Deep East
Texas and North Central Louisiana.
