Winter's Last Blast ?

If you were looking for a reminder that it was still winter, look no further than to the Midsouth forecast for the next few days.



A late season cold front passed through the area early Wednesday morning and has brought with it some very chilly air-for March standards, and with it some very cold liquid precipitation. Forecast lows in the mid to upper 30's and highs in the 40's for the rest of the work week.



If Puxatawney Phil was correct, this should be "curtain call" time for Ol' Man Winter !

The high today, which was really reached after midnight before the cold front passed, was 71 and our low for today is our current temperature, 42 degrees.

WELCOME ! IKE IS DOING THE IKEE SHUFFLE!

After lambasting Cuba, Hurricane Ike is has now slowed it's forward progress, which is usually a bad sign.

Bad in that it is probably trying to re-intensify and get better organized-just as forecast. Would luv to see this high pressure squash it down to nothing, but that is not going to happen....

Hopefully the gov of Texas has done his job in getting that state ready for what may be a major hurricane landfall.
