FRIDAY: Expect intervals of sun through the day with spotty showers possible. Highs will reach the upper 80s ahead of an approaching cold front. This front may trigger stronger storms over the northwestern third of the region during the evening, and these could become locally strong with gusty winds. The good news is these storms should be weakening as they move east of the Natchez Trace.

NEXT WEEK: Sun and clouds will be the rule as dry, fall-like weather continues. Expect highs in the 70s each day and morning lows in the upper 40s to lower 50s.
