.DISCUSSION...
Showers and thunderstorms will move into the Mid-South overnight.
This will likely result in a wetting rain across most, if not all,
of the area. Periodic rain chances are anticipated throughout the
week, with the late week system appearing to have the greatest
potential impact. Gusty south winds will persist through this
evening, decreasing by Monday morning. Winds will shift from the
north on Tuesday behind a cold front, quickly resuming southerly
flow by Wednesday morning.
