High pressure over the eastern US will continue to influence our weather. We remain mostly sunny and dry through midweek. Temps respond with highs in the low to mid 80s. Overnight temps climb and we’re back in the lower to mid 60s most of the week. Moisture begins to creep back into the area later in the week. This will…

A Beautiful Fall Weekend

We’re now on the backside of a cold front. Northerly winds will usher in much cooler air into the state. We start out in the low to mid 40s early Saturday morning. High pressure will be settling across the deep south and this will help provide abundant sunshine throughout the weekend. After chilly mornings, temps will rebound nicely into the…

Windy & Cooler Friday Ahead

The first real cold front of the season is making its way into the deep south tonight. There are a few showers along the boundary but we don’t expect them to make it into our area. We do see much cooler air behind the front and it will spill into the state Friday. Gusty NW winds will usher in the…

A Cooler Weekend Ahead

Rain & Storms Tonight & Saturday

Hurricane Delta will move inland and make its way northeastward across LA and MS tonight. Around here, you can expect periods of rain and storms through the evening and overnight.

Tropical Rain/Storm Impacts Late Week

All quiet weatherwise here on the home front but down in the tropics we’re tracking two storms. Our most immediate concern will come from tropical storm Delta. This storm is forecast to rapidly intensify into a hurricane Tuesday. It will move into and over the gulf starting Wednesday and head northward Thursday then making landfall somewhere along the northern gulf…
