The potential for severe weather and heavy rainfall continues for the Mid-South. The main threat period looks to be late Friday night and Saturday as a line of potentially strong to severe storms moves through the area. This hasn't changed much with the primary hazards remaining damaging winds and heavy rainfall. A few brief tornadoes will also be possible, with the greatest risk over north Mississippi.

Forecast rainfall amounts have trended downward slightly but we still expect up to 3 inches, with localized higher amounts. This may lead to flooding given moist antecedent soil conditions and already swollen rivers/streams.

The timing still looks on track with the line of storms in the vicinity of the Mississippi River by 6 AM, steadily marching east throughout the day Saturday. NWS

NWS reports areas of rain will move across the Mid-South, with colder air moving in as well. Some of the rain may mix with or change to snow Tuesday and Tuesday evening.

There is still much uncertainty in the forecast. If the cold air moves in quickly enough, we may see enough snow for some accumulation.

These two sailors are the first two servicemen from Obion County who died in World War II..hence the name “Jones Walker VFW Post” in Union City.

URGENT.....A strong storm system will affect the Mid-South into Monday afternoon.

Damaging winds and heavy rainfall are the main threats, with a secondary threat of an isolated tornado.

Timing is generally between 5AM-8AM Monday west of the MS river and 8AM-3PM east of the river.

The line should be in a weakening phase as it moves east of the Mississippi River, but a few strong gusts cannot be ruled out.
