9:15 Progress Update
* Before we get to the wintry weather unfolding to our north, a quick note...Please slow down on area roads tonight. Ponding on roadways has created an enhanced risk of hydroplaning. Minor street flooding is continuing to occur in some locations, so exercise caution tonight if you must be out.* Interesting reports coming in from northeast MS...Snow is turning the ground white in Iuka (NE corner of the state). Snow has also been reported in Florence, Alabama - just across the MS state line.
* Our forecast remains unchanged - mostly rain here, with the possibility of a few wet snowflakes mixing in with the rain early tomorrow morning. The best chance of that would come north of Highway 16, and frankly, it seems unlikely even there. But, we'll continue to mention the possibility.
* Perhaps our best chance of snow will come tomorrow. Very cold air aloft will result in instability, and this unstable airmass will likely cause some convective snow showers. While they won't last long, they could produce enough snow to turn the ground white in places.
