Another soggy start to the week but thankfully we are in for a few drier days after tomorrow! This morning a cold front finished moving through the area and took the cloud cover and rain with it. A short wave upper level trough will move through on Thursday bringing shower activity back through the southeast.…

What a beautiful weekend we had! Wish that weather could’ve hung out longer, but I guess it’s best that it was nice on the weekend at least! Monday Unfortunately, a cold front brought another round of rainfall overnight into this morning, adding another three-quarters of an inch to an inch of rain to the overflowing…

We ran a poll a couple of days ago for Groundhog Day asking whether you were ready for spring or wanted some snow. The results were very close to split among the 500 or so votes. In fact, we might have the best of both worlds on deck! A very warm (but wet) pattern has…

Happy Groundhog Day! Phil did NOT see his shadow, so according to him we will be seeing an early spring! (With a track record of 40% over the past decade, we’ll see!) It definitely felt spring-like today with plenty of sunshine and highs around 70! Sadly, this will be our last sunny day for a…

Over the last week temperatures sat well above normal with rain Saturday into Tuesday. I know some you thought it was so not “Christmassy” for it to be 70 on Christmas Day, but at least there wasn’t cold rain. This upcoming week should be rather pleasant with temperatures sitting around normal or just above. There…

A much calmer week ahead plus a peek at what Christmas Day will hold! The past week has been anything but calm! We have had thunderstorms to snow flurries with temperatures ranging from 20s to almost 70! It’s snizzle, fo shizzle! Snow flurries/drizzle falling across the metro… @peteredmiston pic.twitter.com/cNhYmUcIQy — MemphisWeather.net (@memphisweather1) December 17, 2019…

Snow showers to sunshine! Memphis has seen it all this week. Tuesday brought a nasty cold front with a little winter precipitation, but thanks to the presence of some dry air that pushed over the metro, we saw little in the way of winter precip and no accumulation. Areas to our south were luckier though!…

A warm front has pulled to our north, setting the Mid-South in the warm zone ahead of the next frontal system. But in 24 hours, a strong cold front will make you forget all about tomorrow’s highs in the 60s! The temperature drop continues through Tuesday with precipitation falling. And of course, the questions have…

It’s Thanksgiving week which means lots of food, family, and that dreaded shopping on Black Friday. [ Editor’s Note: Sorry ladies, you can already tell a male wrote this. 😉 ] Over the last week we’ve had below normal temperatures, but some pleasant days thrown in. Everyone is in agreement that yesterday was nasty. It…

Finally some fall-like temperatures! A beautiful start to the week with high temperatures in the 60s! These temperatures seem pretty warm when compared to last week’s arctic blast. (A new record low of 17° was set last Tuesday morning, the earliest we have dropped into the teens!) The end of the week brings back another…

On an afternoon like we’ve had today, with high temperatures just a few degrees shy of 70°, it’s hard to imagine just how cold a wind chill of 8° feels… but we’re about to find out! I hope you’ve enjoyed this beautiful fall weekend! It’s all about that front The first half of Monday sets…

With Halloween now in our rear-view mirror we are moving into more “fall-like” conditions. Over the last week we’ve had below-normal temperatures, but very pleasant conditions overall. Temperatures have stayed between the mid 50s and mid 60s for the highs, while lows have stayed between the 30s and 40s. Over the next week we will…

Fall is now in full force! Over the past couple of days we have had some beautiful fall days with a few chilly mornings and nights thrown in. This time of year, we often get some severe storms associated with cold fronts moving in after several days of warmer temperatures. This was the case Monday…

It seemed like fall took a while to get here! The 90s hung on into early October, following the warmest September on record, but now the tide has turned and the usual roller coaster of the changing seasons has arrived! We’ve been alternating between cool mornings and warm afternoons with a front every several days…

At this point in September I’m feeling a little relatable to Veruca Salt – I want fall and I want it now. I know we’re all wishing for some cooler weather, but not seeing much relief in sight for the foreseeable future. For the past week our highs have been about 10° above average for this…

A few weeks ago, it looked like we might be starting to see a reprieve from summer conditions as we headed into September. It seemed like a good forecast at the time! Meanwhile, here we are in the second week of September dealing with another string of mid 90s temperatures. In fact, Monday’s high temperature…
