Cold Friday Morning:

* Quick update this morning as we are close to that time of day we usually set the morning low. Looking at 6AM observations at the NWS sites, Meridian Key Field sits at 20 and in Northern Lauderdale County Meridian Naval Air Station is reporting 21. Northwest winds are blowing across the area this morning, which should keep temperatures a little warmer than expected but still areas could dip into the upper teens before sunrise.

* The record low this morning for Key Field is 16 which was set back in 1991.

* So far in 2007, the coldest morning we have seen was back on January 29th when the morning low reached 17 in Meridian.

* Winds will turn to the Southwest as we go into the night tonight and over the weekend which will lead to a nice warming tend with daytime highs back into the middle 50s and by early next week highs will get back into the 60s. Overnight lows will still be cold over the weekend, but next week lows will climb above freezing.

* Looks like showers and storms return to Eastern Mississippi and Western Alabama by middle of next week.

* Have yourself a great weekend!

Quick note... we have dropped to 19 at Meridian and 20 at the Naval Air Station as of the 7AM reports. So far... these are the lows this morning.

What's it going to take for us to get 2 or 3 inches of white stuff here (maybe a snow making machine).
