Memphis Stays Wet as Post-Tropical System Francine Hangs Around
Hey there, Memphis! It looks like weโre in for a wet weekend thanks to Francine, which has now turned into a post-tropical system. Donโt let the term fool you; this weather pattern is still making quite the presence felt in the area. The low pressure system doesnโt seem to be in a hurry to leave us, and it is expected to linger through early next week. So grab your umbrellas and let’s talk about what to expect!
Weekend Forecast: Clouds and Showers
This weekend, itโs looking **mostly cloudy** in our lovely city. Both Saturday and Sunday are likely to be accompanied by a few showers, so you might want to plan your outdoor activities accordingly. The best chance for some pretty heavy rain will occur where the weather bands are centered, primarily east of the Mississippi River. If youโre on that side of town, it may be worth keeping a close eye on the skies!
The high temperatures will be quite pleasant, ranging from the **middle to upper 70s**. This is still lovely for late winter temperatures, but those clouds might just keep us feeling a little cooler than usual. If youโre hoping to get out, it might be a great day for visiting a cozy cafรฉ, catching up on your reading, or binge-watching your latest series indoors.
What About Monday?
As we slide into Monday, it seems that Francine isnโt quite ready to bid us farewell just yet. Expect more **shower activity** to linger. However, good news is on the horizon! By the middle to the end of the week, we should start to see Francine finally pushed out of the area, making way for some **drier conditions**. Who doesnโt love a sunny day?
Looking Ahead: Warmer Days Are Coming
Starting off the workweek, temperatures will begin dipping into the low 80s, gradually moving up to the **upper 80s by Friday**. That means weโll likely be getting a taste of some beautiful spring weather as we inch closer to the weekend. We can finally shake off the lingering chill and embrace those sunnier days, perfect for hiking in the great outdoors, picnicking, or just enjoying a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood.
Stay Updated!
So there you have it, Memphis! A wet weekend might be ahead, but it looks like some lovely warmth and sunshine are just around the corner. Make sure to enjoy whatever you do, whether youโre braving the showers or cozying up indoors! As we know, we can always count on good company to lift our spirits, rain or shine.
