Tough Forecast Ahead
* Getting a few reports of sleet from around the Laurel area tonight....This is not a widespread event, and there will be no accumulation or travel problems from any sleet pellets you do see falling tonight...* The weekend looks wet, at least for some of us. The best chance of rain will come along and south of I-20. Our computer model guidance is still murky about the exact amount of moisture available with this system. We believe that the drier GFS is probably correct. So, we do not anticipate a soaking rain with this system; amounts will likely stay under one-half inch in most places. Some communities north of I-20 could potentially stay dry altogether. Indeed, a tough forecast!
* It doesn't get any easier next week. Monday and Tuesday should be cool and dry, but the fun really begins around midweek. A deep upper low is forecast to track across the Deep South. These closed upper lows are famous for their ability to throw curveballs at our forecasting attempts. They are capable of supplying their own cold air AND their own moisture. Combining those two can lead to some fun. We'll watch it closely...

It won't be fun next week if all we get is ICE
