Way have made it so Friday.

But anotherround of showers and storms are likelyas we head through the day today,thanks to an upper level low that'sgoing to continue to transport itselfto the north and east later on thisafternoon around seven o'clock, wealready saw a few pockets of heavydownpours in the brief lightning strikehere and there, and that is reallygoing to increase as we had through therest of the morning and afternoon hoursas well as the cloud cover is going tocontinue to increase temperaturesranging anywhere between 86 to 89degrees this afternoon.

Not expectingto see the nineties whatsoever fortoday.

Now overnight tonight.Temperatures dropping into the uppersixties clearing skies overnight.

Butwe will increase the cloud cover just alittle bit for tomorrow afternoonHumidity increases.

A few thunderstormsare impossible for tomorrow afternoon'sWell, few of us getting into the lownineties, but the majority staying inthe upper eighties for the afternoon.So tracking this out for you againcloud cover increases through the dayrain.

Chances really start to pop backup, maybe even before 12 o'clock around11 11 30 But the numerous showers andstorms really come into the pictureafter one o'clock this afternoon.

Heavydownpours, frequent lightning as well.Gusty winds are possible as we headthroughout the rest of the afternoonand even parts of the evening hours.

Ah,lot of a staying dry with the exceptionof a few of us around 8 to 10 o'clocktonight.

But then we clear outovernight tonight.

Starting the day offon Saturday, it's going to be fairlyclear.

Few passing clouds, but a littlebit more.

Call covers head to theafternoon, not showing any rain Chanceson here for the afternoon hours.

But Ido think we will still see a chance ofa few splash and dash heavy downpoursor a few thunderstorms in the afternoonSunday.

Same story longer that rainbowtailoring off toward the east aroundAlabama.

But by Monday, a lot of therain chances for Monday, Tuesday andWednesday of next week is going to betbased off of these two tropical systemsand as locations as well as hisstrength and outer bands.

A tracking itfor you right now as a seven o'clockthis morning, still to tropicaldepressions expected to become tropicalstorms by the end of the day today.

Nowwhere it's going to be going reallydepends on a high pressure off in themid Atlantic, as well as a highpressure off in the western part of theUnited States, kind of determining itstrack.

As of right now, this is whatwe're looking like for both of thesetracks, possibly tropical Depression 14becoming a tropical storm prior toDepression 13.

But either way is stilllooking to be named storms either Lauraor Marco.

But as we head into laterpart of the week and this high pressure,really determining where tropicalDepression 13 goes looking like histailoring further south.

And this iskind of some good news of reason being,if it stays mawr along the land, moremountainous terrain along the Caribbeanthan we could be seeing this staying asa tropical storm as it continues tohead into the Gulf of Mexico.

But as ofright now, landfall for both systemsbetween Tuesday evening and Wednesdaymorning, potentially tropical storm toa Category one hurricane strengthanywhere between Houston, Texas, toTallahassee, Florida.

So those hugecone of uncertainty.

As of right now,as we head into, I think, Sundays, whenwe're gonna have a better chance ofwhat we're going to expect for us herein Mississippi, so kind of reviewing itfor you again.

Temperatures for thenext week Staying in the mid to uppereighties low nineties Heavy chance ofshowers and storms for today lightensup as we head to the weekend.

But as wetrack the tropics next week, that'swhat are going to be determining factorfor how much rain we're going to seenext week as well.
