6/10 – Trey Tonnessen’s “Garden Water” Monday Evening Forecast

Meteorologist Trey Tonnessen

Our upper trough extended from Maine to the Lower Ohio River Valley this afternoon, with upper lows over New Mexico and off the California coast. At the surface, a frontal boundary was drifting southward, and may be fairly close to the Interstate 10/12 corridor. Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms dotted the area, with somewhat better areal coverage over the lower portions of the coastal parishes. Storms have really struggled to strengthen. Temperatures were generally in the upper 80s to mid 90s at mid afternoon. Dew points were in the low to mid 70s near and south of the frontal boundary, but seeing dew points fall into the upper 60s across southwest Mississippi.
