.DISCUSSION...
Radar is indicating some showers and isolated thunderstorms to our
north near Alexandria that extend into Mississippi this am. These
storms are moving to the east as an upper level low spins over 
Arkansas. The upper level low is expected to move slowly into Tenn
before getting block by a ridge. The ridge will hold the low in 
place through the weekend. But another system is expected to drop 
down from the upper plain states and into the south. By Monday 
this feature will push a dry cool front thru during the day. 
Tuesday morning temperatures starting out into the upper 60s to 
near 70 which will be seven degrees cooler than what it is now. 
High pressure aloft will keep showers in check through next week
this will help the rivers to begin falling.
 
Temperatures have finally begun to cool a bit this morning from 
the lower 80s at midnight. Temperatures will again climb back 
towards 90 degrees today and again on Saturday and Sunday. But 
the weekend is shaping up to be mostly sunny and dry allowing for 
the region to begin drying out from the recent rains.
