Forecast Discussion

An area of low pressure near the MS River Valley will move through our area tonight. Ahead of the low, light rain will be possible throughout the day. The best chance at a steadier rain, however, will be tonight as the low moves through.

The clouds and rain will begin to decrease late Sunday morning as the low pressure moves away from the area; the sun may even come out in the afternoon. Behind the front, some cooler air will move in for Sunday night.

A couple of weak disturbances will bring an increase in clouds on Monday and again on Wednesday, but no significant rainfall is expected at this time.

Temperatures will remain near to above normal for much of next week
