.SHORT TERM...
(Rest of today through Friday)
Issued at 1057 AM CDT Thu Apr 25 2024

A beautiful day is shaping up with mostly sunny skies this
morning and temperatures well into the 60's at this time. These 
temperatures will continue to warm underneath plenty of sun, and 
highs should reach into the mid-70's. Cloud cover will return 
though as a look at satellite shows abundant clouds associated 
with a shortwave to our west. Meanwhile, surface observations 
show a warm front to our south over central MS and AL. This 
shortwave and warm front will move through the area tonight and 
into Friday morning, resulting in scattered showers. Rain totals 
should remain light with most likely not seeing more than a few 
hundredths of an inch. With little instability, chances of 
thunderstorms are low as well.

Rain should come to an end by late Friday morning or early
afternoon with the remainder of the day being nice as high 
temperatures continue their warming trend into the upper-70's to 
low-80's.
