We will have plumes of moisture being pumped in and with a front expected to stall out over the area, we can expect moderate to heavy rain through Tuesday.
Forecast totals could get upward of 4 to 5" with some higher local numbers, and there will be a threat for flooding and flash flooding from Arkansas through Kentucky.

There will also be a risk for severe weather across the south later in the day on Monday, with storms that could produce damaging wind gusts and even spin up a tornado or two.
