11/6 – Rob Knight’s “WET” Midday Forecast

A weak cold front will be approaching the forecast area from the north today. The local area will be on the trailing end of the boundary. The strongest mid/upper level winds are quite a bit north of the area which will keep strong/severe storms to the north. It appears that the weak boundary will stall in southern Mississippi today as surface moisture ahead of the front is already in place with dew-points in the lower to mid-70s.

Ample moisture and lowering pressures will promote shower development today…with a few embedded t-storms. As the boundary washes out tonight, the next cold front will approach the area Wednesday into Wednesday night. This will once again increase rain chances and likely even higher than today. This front will stall as well, but possibly closer to the coast. Thursday will be a persistence pattern as the front will remain stalled across the forecast area. It’s not until this weekend that the rainy pattern should finally come to an end.

We could be looking at high temps in the upper 50s with low temps in the upper 30s for a couple days.
