Remember, it is Mississippi and we still have plenty of hot and humid days to go through in September. But there are signs on the weather map that the change of seasons is on the horizon. Cooler air can be found in Canada and long range forecasts show that cooler air trying to push southward into the U.S. Don't be surprised if we see sort of change in the next 7-12 days. September fronts typically bring some rain followed by drier air and comfortable temperatures at night and in the early morning hours. September's average highs are still well up in the 80s.

By the way, it looks like August 2007 will be the 4th hottest on record at JAckson.
