Severe Threat Diminishing

* The threat of severe weather is rapidly diminishing across east Mississippi and west Alabama. The Severe Thunderstorm Watch we were under has been allowed to expire. Heavy rain will continue sweeping across the Deep South for the next several hours. The rain will begin to taper off here by midnight.

* We've been having some issues with our FirstWarn map and crawl display today. But, I believe we've managed to iron most of the problems out and hopefully the software will perform better from now on.

* We've had a GREAT response to the weblog. In fact, we've seen almost one thousand hits by over 400 unique visitors since Friday afternoon! Thanks for your interest, and I hope that the 'blog is as interesting to read as it is to write.

* Time to go, it's time to do "Final Weather" -- the forecast we do for the evening hours at the end of the 6:00 news...Will post later tonight around 9:30.

Hey,

Thanks a lot for the kind words! I visited with the West End Elementary school over in YORK, ALABAMA my first week back here. Had a great time. Where's the best place to eat over in that part of Sumter County?

Thanks for reading!
Josh
