WEATHER UPDATE
AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING HOT TEMPERATURES TO THE MID-SOUTH FOR MUCH OF THE WEEK. HIGHS THIS AFTERNOON ARE EXPECTED TO REACH THE MID TO UPPER 90S. A COMBINATION OF THE HOT TEMPERATURES AND HUMID AIR WILL RESULT IN HEAT INDEX VALUES REACHING OR EXCEEDING 105 DEGREES ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE AREA. ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. A COLD FRONT WILL BRING SLIGHTLY BETTER CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, ESPECIALLY NEAR THE TENNESSEE RIVER. HIGHER CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE LATE NEXT WEEK ALONG WITH SOME POTENTIAL RELIEF FROM THE EXTREME HEAT AND HUMIDITY.
