THURSDAY Update:  Warm Today – Active Pattern – Wet at Times Next Few Days

Good Morning!  We’re easing into a somewhat active pattern over the next several days.  It will be wet at times as a parade of storm systems moves through the Deep South.  Storm system number one will start effecting the area this afternoon, tonight and into Friday.  We get a nice break between storms on Saturday.  But, another round of showers and storms arrives by Sunday afternoon.  Much cooler air will follow storm system number two.  In fact, by Tuesday, we map not make it out of the 50’s.  Much of next week will be cooler than normal. Here’s my brief discussion.

YESTERDAY’S CLIMATE REPORT:   Yesterday was very comfortable.  High 76.  Morning low 58.  (Normal 70/45)  Rainfall: 0.00.  Rainfall for the month:  .04”.  Today will be about 8 degrees cooler.   

TODAY:     A cooler day.  Mainly cloudy.  High 68.  Risk of scattered showers and perhaps tome thunderstorms by this afternoon and overnight tonight.  Southeast wind at 10 to 15 mph.    Low tonight 59.

FUTURE RADAR snapshots this afternoon at 2PM, and check out tomorrow morning at 7AM.  Looks pretty wet.


NEXT FEW DAYS:  Scattered showers and maybe some thunderstorms mainly first half of the day Friday.    Sunshine, cooler Saturday.  High in the upper 60’s.  Widespread Showers & thunderstorms  return by Sunday afternoon and Sunday night.   Chilly air is expected Monday & Tuesday.   Tuesday’s high perhaps only in the 50’s.   

Wet at times over the next several days.   Active weather pattern.  Heaviest rain across the northern part of the state.
