.UPDATE...

High pressure remains located over Northern Alabama this evening.
Winds have begun to turn around to the south across Northeast
Arkansas. Expect this will keep low temperatures from dropping as
low as the last several evenings. Expect readings in the upper 40s
to mid 50s. Current forecast looks good. Just made some minor
tweaks to sky conditions as cirrus from the former tropical system
Gamma is streaming northward from the Gulf of Mexico through
Louisiana/Central Mississippi into Northeast Mississippi.

.DISCUSSION... /issued 322 PM CDT Tue Oct 6 2020/ 

Warmer temperatures are on tap for the next couple of days. 
Expect above normal highs in the low to middle 80s with lows 
mostly in the 50s. 

A weak cold front will move across the Midsouth late Thursday 
ahead of what is left of Hurricane Delta. Clouds rain associated 
with Delta, as well as a drier air mass behind the cold front will
result in cooler, near normal temperatures. Near to slightly 
above normal temperatures are expected for the remainder of the 
forecast period. Expect Highs mostly in the 70s and lows in the 
60s. 

The impact in the Midsouth from what is left of Hurricane Delta 
is still highly uncertain, especially when it comes to exact 
timing and location of impact. However, heavy rain and gusty wind 
are expected for portions of the Midsouth, most likely across 
North Mississippi and West Tennessee based on the current 
National Hurricane Center forecast track. The latest forecast rain
totals have decreased slightly, but 2.5 to 4.5 inches looks 
likely right now across much of North Mississippi and West 
Tennessee, tapering off quickly to the West. A wind advisory for 
sustained winds over 25mph will likely be needed for portions of 
North Mississippi and possibly West Tennessee Saturday into early 
Sunday. Wind gusts may exceed 35mph. Expect these details as well 
as timing to become clearer over the next couple of days.
