4/24- Rainy Week

Good Monday all-

We have quite a bit of rain in store for us over the coming days, but fortunately not today! The day today should be delightful, with highs in the low 70s likely for much of the state (with lower temps likely along the shoreline). Tomorrow is the day we have a big problem, and it will be pouring pretty much all day with highs only in the mid 50s. The rain could last into Wednesday morning before we clear things out for the afternoon. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible both Thursday and Friday afternoon as we have hot and humid weather in the works. The weekend looks a touch cooler, with highs generally in the mid 70s and some passing showers on Sunday.

Today in weather history- April 24, 2010- A massive long track tornado, with a width of up to 1.75 miles and a path length of 149.25 miles, strikes Mississippi. The hardest hit area was Yazoo City, MS where four people were killed. In all, ten people are killed. This is the widest tornado ever recorded in the state of Mississippi.
