Active Weather


The rain and clouds were slow to move out of the Golden Triangle region this morning. We got the cooler temps from the front early this morning, but the dry air was a little slow to follow. 

Some severe weather was expected out of this system, but once the front made its way to Arkansas it weakened a little and we really didn't see much instability. In face, Starkville got less than half an inch of rain...The rain sounded more impressive last night as I was falling asleep. 

Tonight and tomorrow will remain clear as high pressure moves in. This area of high pressure quickly moves to the east and Starkville will start to see a more southerly flow by Monday morning. This flow from the south will bring in moisture from the Gulf and set us up for some rain late Monday night and Tuesday.By Wednesday, skies start to clear, but again, it won't last long. ANOTHER front is expected to head this way by next Friday. 

The temperature roller-coaster up and down as this series of fronts heads through. If one of these systems decides to stall out, we may see rain most of the workweek and next weekend. 

While severe weather is not expected right now, the Southeast is in its secondary severe weather season. I'll have more on this later.
