No changes have been made to the forecast for this week. Tuesday and Wednesday still looks to be the best days for showers and isolated t- storms across our entire forecast area. Please see the previous forecast discussion down below for more information:

Surface high pressure over the Lower MS Valley will continue to bring quiet conditions for the next couple of days. Today's early morning lows (low/mid 20s) will remain below freezing across the area. As the high continues southeastward, highs (upper 40s-near 60 degrees)/low (ranging in the 30s-40s) will continue to run below seasonal to near seasonal averages. Moisture return is expected ahead of the an incoming shortwave trough, bringing showers and an isolated t-storm chances back on Tuesday into Wednesday with the greatest chances Tuesday evening. Areawide PoPs between 50-90% are expected, setting up for a wet mid-week. A frontal boundary will swing through Wednesday afternoon/evening dropping overnight lows back to the 20s. Once the boundary passes, quieter weather pattern expected as another surface high settles into the southeast. Temps will return to seasonal averages by the end of the period. /SW/CR
