.DISCUSSION...

A period of active weather with scattered to numerous showers and
a few storms will be possible through today as a cold front
approaches from the NW. Rain amounts will generally be light with
most places receiving one quarter inch or less. The highest
totals are currently forecast across southwestern MS where around
one half inch of rain is forecast. Behind the cold front, much
cooler and drier air will move into the area for the second half
of the week. Afternoon RH values are currently forecast to drop
to near or below 30% both Thursday and Friday afternoons, but
should rise fairly quickly once winds turn southeastward again on
Saturday.

1) Confidence in rain amounts and timing.
Best rain potential will be this afternoon with the higher probabilities
between noon and 5pm. On average rainfall amounts look to be light,
around a tenth of an inch, but locally higher amounts will be possible
if a thunderstorm moves over.

2) 2) Extent, duration, and severity of fog possible Tuesday night into
Wednesday morning

Any fog should remain patchy in nature with the best timing being between
midnight and sunrise. Just prior to sunrise surface winds will increase,
which should overall limit the potential beyond 6am Wednesday.
