The western edge of the storm complex along with the approaching cold front will both provide a chance of storms across northeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas late tonight. Strong low level winds and sufficient instability will support the potential for a few strong to severe storms. Additionally, winds will remain gusty through the overnight hours. A corridor of strong winds just above the surface may also prompt periodic gusts around 40 mph across the higher terrain of southeast Oklahoma and northwest Arkansas.
