* WHERE...Portions of central and north central Arkansas.
* WHEN...Through Friday morning.
* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - A mesoscale convective system was located over northeast Oklahoma with copious amounts of moisture advection into the state.
