Mid-South Meteorology: Wet Weekend Warmup

So NICE that the frigid temperatures are gone and actually ABOVE AVERAGE temperatures are on the way for the weekend, but NOT without cost. We'll have a chance for showers actually beginning in earnest Saturday evening, and ESPECIALLY on Sunday. Could also see a thunderstorm but at this time, not expecting anything severe! All this as the southerly flow picks up ahead of an approaching low pressure system which should arrive just to our west on Sunday.

Now for the GOOD NEWS: High temperatures Saturday should approach 60 and Sunday's highs could get into the low 60s! If you're planning on anything outdoors....Saturday is definitely your day. Sunday....not so much....BUT at least it will be above average temperature wise.

Your can hear my forecasts each weekday on Newstalk 94.7, 95.5, 570AM and 1320AM, along with The Mix 94.7 and Willie 102.1. Remember, when the power's out, you can still hear our forecasts and live reports on these stations, too.
