Summer Sets; The "Official" End of Summer is Here


Since Labor Day Weekend marks the official end of Summer, with family reunions, harvest time, college football (GO HOGS), and families trying to squeeze in that last getaway of the year, it's only fitting that last official summer weekend end on a possibly rainy note. After the two past weekends though- we cannot complain!
Moisture is steadily returning to the Midsouth as our high pressure moves off to the east and the semi-stationary cold front dies and interacts with upper level impulses moving downstream in the northwesterly upper-level jet . As these impulses come down the pike, look for rain and thunderstorms to break out intermittently throughout the Labor Day weekend. Although no severe weather is expected, one cannot rule out scattered heavy rain amounts.
Temperatures will remain slightly below the norm for early September standards. By late next week, temps will edge back up to normal, with highs in the mid to upper 80's.
