Freezing Rain Update

* The threat of any icing is beginning to wind down. The current temp in Meridian is 35, with rain falling. Golden Triangle Regional Airport, well north of here, has reached 34 degrees, so it's a safe bet that almost all of our area is above freezing. I'd still take it easy and exercise caution today - wet roads can be dangerous as well.

* The rest of the work week looks wet at times. Winds aloft will continue in a zonal, west to east pattern, with tiny impulses of energy rippling through that flow. As those impulses move overhead, they kick off a few showers. Timing these impulses is nearly impossible, so the best course of action is to carry the umbrella with you through most of this week. If we're lucky, we may see some drying by late Thursday and into Friday, but that's not written in stone just yet. The weekend will feature a return to much colder weather.
