Twin States Weather Blog

Welcome To April... Wetter and Cooler:

* Good morning everyone... Dense fog across the Twin State area this morning thanks to the moisture left from the rains over the weekend. A dense fog advisory is in effect until 10:00 AM for counties in East Mississippi... Scan the blog entry below for more on the fog.

* A front is stalled across Northern Mississippi this morning and will keep us in the warm and moist airmass across our part of the Twin States. Southerly flow will help kick off isolated showers and thunderstorms today and tonight across the area.

* A stronger cold front is due in here later in the week and will bring another round of rain and storms to be followed by a cool snap in time for Easter. Temperatures are going to hold into the 80s a few days and drop back into the upper 60s and lower 70s by the end of the week. Nighttime lows by the end of the weekend and into Easter weekend will drop into the 30s.

* Long range models are still hinting at April being a wet and cooler period for Mississippi and Alabama...
