Not the best day for grilling

(Monday 9:20am) As many of you have already gathered, this Memorial day is not the best day to be cooking outside. The low pressure that we've been tracking for a week now is centered over Arkansas. As is sits there, it's funneling rain out of the Gulf of Mexico and dragging it directly over the Pine Belt.

As the day rolls along we can expect some breaks in the rain during the afternoon and evening but not enough to make a huge difference. I suggest you take a look at our "Future Cast" at the top of the WDAM Weather Page if you want to get a feel for the day.

As for the week... thanks to this low, we will have a similar pattern all week until a front pushes through late Friday. After that, some high pressure should take over and gives a few dry days.
