Scattered Storms, Warm

Temperatures are generally in the mid 60s across the area this morning under partly cloudy skies. The partly cloudy skies will be very short lived as clouds should thicken up as the morning progresses. A line of storms associated with a small but potent upper air disturbance is currently located along and just west of the Natchez Trace. These showers and storms will back build and intensify throughout the morning as they move to the east and we'll likely have to deal with these strong storms later this morning and early afternoon. It's not out of the question that one or two storms could become severe with hail being the primary threat. The temperature forecast is extremely tricky, but my best guess is that we warm to near 80 before the storms arrive. The storms may temporarily cool us off, but we'll have a chance to clear out and warm up again, which should allow temperatures to top out near 84 this afternoon. The upper air system should exit to the east by tonight and we'll likely be left with several clouds. Despite this, temperatures should be able to settle near 67 tomorrow morning.
