Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day! Of course our thoughts are with those who have served or are currently serving in America’s Armed Forces. A mix of sun and clouds today, with a few afternoon storms developing. If you have outdoor plans, be prepared to go inside if a storm approaches, especially if you plan to be at [...]

Storms to the East

We’ve got some strong storms east of I 55, moving SW; that motion is rare, but can happen this time of year. Conditions are less favorable west of I 55 so they should begin weakening soon.

A Few PM Storms

We’ve almost made it through another week! A few showers and storms likely this afternoon, as a weak disturbance approaches from the north. The best shot for storms will be from 2 o’clock until 5 o’clock. Due to the scattered nature of the storms, some of us will get wet, while others stay dry all [...]

Dry & Warm

We’ve got some slightly drier air moving in from the north, which means most of us stay dry today, with a good supply of sunshine; afternoon temperatures up to near 91. Memorial Day Weekend, is looking pretty good: A mix of sun and clouds each day, with a few showers and storms each afternoon. You [...]

More Afternoon Storms

Like yesterday, the rainfall will not be evenly distributed; some spots will receive heavy rain, with others not receiving a single drop. Same deal as yesterday: Any storm that forms has the [...]

Warm; A Few Storms

A thunderstorm already in progress early this morning, along Hwy 61 between Leland and Boyle; the strongest part of the storm is over Southeast Bolivar County, between Choctaw and Shaw, producing heavy rain, small hail, and lightning. Another shower is developing along Hwy 49, just north of Greenwood. These are firing up along a boundary laid [...]

Afternoon Storms

A cluster of strong thunderstorms are located north of US 278, from Friars Point, east to Jonestown to Marks to Sardis. The storms, themselves are moving very little, but a gust front(Thunderstorm wind spreading out ahead of the storm)is heading south. Additional storms will likely form along the front, as it moves south. The storms will [...]

Summer Time Pattern

The official start of Summer is still a month away, but it sure feels like it already. The overall pattern is beginning to lean that way, as the primary storm track shifts north, along with the cooler air. You know the routine: hot and muggy with a few passing afternoon showers and storms…Oh yeah, welcome to the south!…Probably a few [...]

Lookin Like Summer!!
