WEATHER UPDATE
A COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY MOVED THROUGH THE MID-SOUTH ON SUNDAY BUT HAS SLOWED ITS PROGRESS ACROSS CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI. SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY TODAY ALONG AND NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY WHICH WILL NOT MOVE MUCH THROUGH THE PERIOD. BY TOMORROW, A VERY STRONG DISTURBANCE WILL DIVE INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AS A SURFACE LOW RAPIDLY STRENGTHENS ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH. AN ACTIVE PERIOD OF WEATHER IS EXPECTED FROM TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY EVENING WITH STRONG THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE THEN CHANGING TO WINTRY PRECIPITATION BY WEDNESDAY. AS OF NOW, THE THINKING IS THAT SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL BE TOO WARM FOR ANY SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS OF SNOW. THE AREAS MOST LIKELY TO SEE SOME ACCUMULATION ARE IN AREAS NORTH OF JACKSON AND IN NE ARKANSAS AND THE MISSOURI BOOTHEEL.
