... Winter Weather Advisory now in effect from 5 am to 6 PM CST Thursday...
The Winter Weather Advisory is now in effect from 5 am to 6 PM CST Thursday.
A mixture of sleet and rain is expected to develop toward morning. The precipitation will continue into Thursday afternoon. Some freezing rain may occur in east central Mississippi with total ice accumulations of one-tenth inch possible. This will result in hazardous travel conditions. The precipitation will mix with or change to rain during the mid-day hours on Thursday. An Arctic front will surge across the area on Thursday... bringing the wintry precipitation. In the wake of the front... the precipitation will change to sleet and snow before ending. This could result in a light dusting of snow.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of sleet and freezing rain will cause travel difficulties. Be prepared for slippery roads and limited visibilities... and use caution while driving.
Hard Freeze Watch
Statement as of 2:48 PM CST on Enero 06, 2010
... Hard freeze watch remains in effect from Thursday evening through Sunday morning...
A hard freeze watch remains in effect from Thursday evening through Sunday morning.
A dangerously cold airmass will enter the region Thursday evening... with temperatures plummeting into the teens for Thursday night. Even colder conditions are expected Friday and Saturday nights... with low temperatures falling into the lower teens and possibly single digits. Temperatures will remain below freezing for much of the late week and early weekend time period... with temperatures on Friday and Saturday mainly staying in the 20s. Additionally... north winds will combine with these temperatures to result in wind chill readings near zero in some locations. This will be a particularly dangerous cold air outbreak... and people should take the time now to prepare for the frigid temperatures. Hard freeze highlights could be extended into Monday in some locations if the cold airmass lingers even longer.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A hard freeze watch indicates the possibility for a long duration of temperatures below freezing with overnight lows falling below 20. Pets and livestock should be protected. There could also be damage to sensitive vegetation... exposed plumbing... and water based cooling systems of automobiles and stationary engines.
