Sunday Morning Notes
Our chances for severe weather increase today as a cold front approaches from out west. It is currently located near Arkansas. The good news is the rain/clouds this morning are keeping the atmosphere very stable. Instability is a key ingredient for severe storms. Right now, we just don't have that. There is some lightning occurring back in Arkansas and in central sections of Mississippi...but that is over 200 miles away.

Our FWSOTD is CoCoRaHS. As the Putnam County Coordinator for CoCoRaHS, it is my job to promote this organization. I enjoy talking to people about it, because the program is very well organized. Check out their website. Check out the precipitation for your local area. It is interesting and fun!
