News Summary

Mid-South Weather Update: Rain and Colder Temperatures Expected Mid-Week

Hello, friends in the Mid-South! It looks like we’re in for a bit of a wild ride with the weather this week. After a brief break from the rain, another weather system is moving through our region, and it’s going to be quite a change as we head towards mid-week.

What’s Coming Up?

Now, don’t be surprised if you notice those temperatures creeping up a bit over the next couple of days. Early on Wednesday, we can expect the thermometer to rise to the upper 40s to lower 50s. For those living south of Memphis, get ready to enjoy the middle to upper 50s! However, don’t get too cozy just yet, because rain is on the way.

The rain is likely to make its appearance during your morning commute, and it may stick around for a while. We’re looking at a chance of up to 1 inch of rain as the day rolls on. If you’re heading out, remember to grab that umbrella – you’ll need it! Rain chances are expected to taper off by early evening, but buckle up because the temperatures will drop significantly by then, coming down to near freezing.

Brace for a Brisk Thursday

Thursday morning is going to start on the chilly side, with brisk north winds giving us that wintery feel. The highs for the day are predicted to be in the upper 30s and lower 40s. Yes, it’s time to pull out those warm jackets and maybe even a cozy scarf! By Thursday night, expect temperatures to dive into the 20s under mostly clear skies. It looks like we’ll be dealing with a little chill in the air.

A Mild Friday is on the Horizon

The weekend is just around the corner, and Friday promises to bring a welcome change in the form of milder temperatures. Get ready as the forecast projects us hopping back up to the lower 50s. A perfect day to head outdoors and shake off that winter chill!

Saturday Storms to Watch

60s, but with that warmth comes another system that could bring rain and a few storms. A First Alert has been issued for potentially strong to severe storms Saturday afternoon and evening, primarily impacting areas south and east of Memphis. So keep an ear out for weather updates and prepare for gusty winds and heavy rain.

Sunday’s Nippy Surprise

30s to near 40. To add a little twist to the story, flurries could even make an appearance early on Sunday as we experience that chill. It seems like Mother Nature is keeping us guessing!

What Lies Ahead

What Can We Expect?

low 50s, with an 80% chance of rain. Winds will be mild at about 5 to 10 mph, so it’s not all bad. After a rainy start, Thursday and Friday should be relatively dry, but be ready for Saturday’s storms.
