9/26 – Sam Parker’s “Windy and Cool” Thursday Midday Forecast
A cold front that continues to push south and east into the Gulf of Mexico this morning. This front, moves drier air into the region, which will put a stop to any/all rain chances for our south MS for the rest of this week. The synoptic pattern is rather interesting to say the least. First, a cut off low currently sits over the Ohio River Valley to the north. To the south and east Hurricane Helene is making its way north toward the Florida Panhandle/Big Bend Region over the Gulf of Mexico. As it`s being pulled north, the cut off low will influence the system and allow it to move back west over the TN River Valley before it becomes absorbed by the extra tropical feature. That`s interesting, but all that has for us is drier air being pulled southward. Overall, not a big cool down, but a degree or two below average at least for today and tomorrow can be expected.
