Sunday Evening...

Pretty nice Palm Sunday weather out there today with lots of sun and highs in the low to mid 60s. We will enjoy some nice weather for the next couple of days as well.

Our next system will roll in here Wednesday. I do think some thunderstorms could be involved, and I won't rule out some severe weather. One factor against severe weather is instability....it doesn't look like we will have much of it. Most indications are that the showers and storms will spread in during the first half of the day Wednesday. If that is the case, there will not be an opportunity for lots of daytime heating in advance of the system.

Also, unlike this last storm system, the winds at the surface and aloft look pretty unidirectional. That would already make the tornado threat pretty low...however, that does not negate damaging wind potential.

So, we have a couple of days to watch that system. At this point, I think we can't rule out severe weather chances, but I am not overly excited about it. Let's watch it and see....

On another note, if you are a college basketball fan, this is a great time of year. My Mississippi State Bulldogs suffered a disappointing loss last night to Georgia in the SEC Tournament, but they are safely in the NCAA Tournament. I love watching the Tournament Selection Show, and I am excited to see where State is heading.
