Watching The Radar:

(Click image for larger view: 4:00 PM Radar)

* At the moment there is no activity on radar here in East Mississippi and West Alabama. Scattered showers and a few storms have popped up just south of Jackson and will move East and Northeast through the evening. Other storms are popping up over the Delta and into Northern Louisiana. There is severe weather going on over North Louisiana and Southern Arkansas but this activity will track northeast with the actual storm system as it lifts northeast.

* Isolated storms are still possible over the Twin States area this evening but we are not expecting severe weather in our area. If we see any severe weather tonight, it will remain over far West Mississippi and across the Delta.




* As you can see from the extended forecast above, we have another chance of rain come Saturday afternoon. In my opinion this looks to be a decent chance for our area. Right now we will not mention severe weather just yet, but I'll be watching the system the next few days. Overall point is a decent chance of needed rain.

* Another rain chance enters the forecast next week as we start April. Models still show the south developing under a zonal pattern (west to east flow) which would put us under a more wet pattern.

* Daytime highs remain some 10-15 degrees above normal with no cooler weather in site. We all know living in the Southeast that we get a cool snap around Easter... so I still say we have we have another cool wave in our area.

* More tonight at 5:00, 6:00, and 10:00...
