AREA WEATHER UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON MS
315 PM CDT MON JUL 17 2006

IN THE MIDST OF ANOTHER HOT AFTERNOON ACROSS THE ARKLAMISS. 
TEMPERATURES AT 3 PM RANGED FROM UPPER 90S TO NEAR 100 DEGREES IN 
GENERAL WITH HEAT INDEX VALUES RANGING FROM 100 TO 105 DEGREES. A 
FEW AREAS FURTHER SOUTH ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE HIGHWAY 84 CORRIDOR 
ARE IN THE SLIGHTLY COOLER MID 90S...BUT A LITTLE MORE HUMIDITY IN 
THESE AREAS IS MAKING IT FEEL JUST AS UNCOMFORTABLE TO BE OUTDOORS. 
FORTUNATELY...THERE ARE SOME CLOUDS AND A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS 
ACROSS PORTIONS OF MISSISSIPPI TO PROVIDE A LITTLE ISOLATED RELIEF 
FROM THE HEAT. PRECIPITATION HAS BEEN MOST PREVALENT OVER THE PAST 
HOUR IN SOUTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF THE STATE WHERE SOME DOWNPOURS HAVE 
BEEN LOCALLY HEAVY. CROSS YOUR FINGERS FOR A STRAY SHOWER OR STORM 
TO COME YOUR WAY THIS AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE...ANTICIPATE MORE 
STIFLING CONDITIONS.
