Nice weekend at hand BUT big changes coming in our weather !

The weekend is shaping up to be very nice with partly cloudy skies with highs in the mid 70s and lows around 50-52. As we get towards the end of next week there will be a shot at some showers on Wednesday and Thanksgiving day. The big changes are expected after that as several shots of cold Arctic air are forecast to blast into the eastern and southern portions of our nation beginning late November into early December. These blasts of cold air could bring us the potential for a hard freeze but it is just a tad to early to tell at this time how cold it will get. I will keep you posted ! Rex

Nice weather expected to last for about a week.

Cool nights and mild days are on tap for about the next week before another system moves this way during Thanksgiving week. At this point, Turkey Day may infact be a turkey, weatherwise, as most models are forecasting rain then followed by somewaht colder air, but it still remains unclear on just how cold it will get. The real cold air that may bring us our first good freeze appears poised to drop into the deep south around the first week of December! Rex

Good rain expected on Monday !

Finally some rain has arrived in the Pine Belt but I expect most of rain will fall during the day on Monday and linger into Monday night before ending. Maybe we can squeeze out an inch or so !!!! It will be much appreciated ! Cooler and drier weather returns for Tuesday into Friday with highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s each day. Rex

Rain chances increasing-colder by late week !

Our rain chances will be rather slim tonight and through the day on Sunday but will dramatically increase Sunday night into Monday with much needed rainfall coming. That system will move through by Tuesday with rain ending from the west. Wednesday will be sunny and mild with a high around 70 but then a strong coldd front will blast through bringing with it much cooler temps. Highs on Thursday and Friday will only be around 60 and then frosty nights will return by the weekend with lows in mid 30s. Rex

Rain chances increasing !

Although today will be sunny with highs in the upper 70s a weak cool front will approach our area over the weekend and give us a chance at some much needed rain especially Sunday evening into Monday. Although not drought busting rains, we could see about an inch or so and that would greatly help. Looking ahead to the Thanksgiving forecast. A huge mass of Arctic air over Canada is forecast to start heading south into the United States and if the jet stream gets far enough south we could be in far a cold holiday-but there is still some questions that far out in the forecast. I will keep you posted ! Have a great weekend ! Rex

Slight change !

Previously we had a 40% chance for rain in for Sunday but that now has been reduced to just a 20% chance. The better rain chances appear to be on Monday ! Rex

Nothing new to report- but that's good !!

High pressure is still the dominate weather freature for us and will continue to be for the next few days. By Saturday we will see some increase in moisture and have put a 20% chance for rain in the forecast but i think our rain chances will be better Sunday into Monday. No real cold weather expected until maybe near the last of the month. Rex
