Regional outlooks favor well-above-normal temperatures and above-normal precipitation for the remainder of March across the Mid-South, forecasters said.
As the region passes the midpoint of the month, the latest forecasts point to a warmer and wetter finish than is typical for this time of year, according to the outlooks.
Forecasters said the pattern could lead to more frequent rain and higher-than-average temperatures for the coming days, though exact timing and amounts will vary by locality.
Officials urged residents to monitor updates from local weather services and heed any advisories or warnings as forecasts are refined.
