We are finally getting our best rain chances in nearly a month today as an upper-level low pressure system moves directly across the region. The cold temperatures aloft (typically associated with these types of systems) and heating at the surface this morning are fueling the formation of thunderstorms, some of which contain hail. The first round is moving mainly across east-central AR and north MS early this afternoon (see image above), however as the low approaches, scattered thunderstorms will be possible across the entire metro region through sundown.
Stay with MWN on Facebook and Twitter (links below), as well as MemphisWeather.net on the web, for the latest on these storms and the forecast for the rest of the week. If you are viewing this post on the MWN Blog website, you will also find a tab above containing the latest radar/satellite imagery.
