RainThis Week

This week will be active weather wise. 2 fronts will bring rain chances. The first will be Tuesday afternoon as a fast moving cold front sweeps across the south. This front will be preceded with strong and gusty winds followed by a line of downpours as the front moves through. I am expecting the heavier rain and possible downpours to move through quickly in the mid to late afternoon. The severe threat looks to be small at this time. I am expecting the storm's best energy to be off to our north. A quick shot of cold air will follow the front on Wednesday with yet another weather system due in on Thursday. Thursday's weather maker will be a longer lasting rain as the storm center with this front looks like it will move across north Mississippi. Anytime a strong storm center moves across the area you have to ask, "what about severe weather?" Since cold stable air will be over the region there probably will not be enough time for the atmosphere to turn around and be primed for severe weather. It looks like more of a widespread rain. Coastal Mississippi and south Alabama seem to have the best chance for severe storms with Thursday's storm front. As always, it will depend on the storm track so stay tune. We will see another quick shot of chilly air on Friday.
