Good news - this weekend looks incredible. Sunshine and high temperatures in the low 80s today? What more could you ask for to end May? Bad news - more showers will return to the Mid-South by the middle to end of next week.

Did it seem a bit hazy across the Mid-South today? Check out the smoke from the fires in Canada on this GOES imagery. #tnwx #mswx #mowx #arwx #midsouthwx

Another pleasant day is on tap across the Mid-South. A few locations could see a couple of showers and thunderstorms this afternoon. The best chances (20 to 30%) remain across West TN, but the majority of the area will likely remain dry.

Wildfire smoke from Canada will continue making its way down here tomorrow... We'll see more hazy skies but this smoke is NOT expected to reach the surface or cause hazardous air quality issues for us tomorrow. Most of this smoke is very high up in the atmosphere 🔥

Sunny conditions are on the horizon again today, although some haziness is still expected. Enjoy the sunshine and warmer temperatures as things will likely become soggy again by the end of the week.

Satellite can help us see a lot using different wavelengths on the electromagnetic spectrum. These channels can then be combined into other composite satellite fields, including this Fire Temperature channel that we can use to clearly see the scope of the wildfires over Canada 🔥
