Temperatures have found some traction! The 80 degree mark has been broken and it looks like we'll be camping out there for the next few days.
The weather pattern heading into the weekend will be very comparable to a summer time type pattern. High pressure over the Gulf of Mexico will keep us dry and quite warm through the weekend. While these aren't record highs, we're pretty close. We're expecting 84 degrees for a high on Saturday. If the mercury reaches 87, it will tie a record high originally set back in 1915.
Rainfall has been plentiful during April with almost three and a half inches recorded. For the year to date we're about three inches behind normal. Our next best chance of rain will be Monday night into Tuesday.
I made a visit to the Southaven Springfest yesterday. They're going to have some incredible weather for the big event this weekend. It's a great event for families with plenty of rides and even a major bar-b-que contest.
My wife Leah tested the Magic Jack internet phone system for Kris Anderson's DOES IT WORK segment yesterday. You can watch the report by clicking on this link: http://www.wreg.com/news/onyourside/doesitwork/
