The weather system that brought early fall like weather to Jackson on Friday has moved out of the way that will allow a high high pressure system to pass south of this area today. Even so, there should be considerable sunshine with afternoon temperatures in the mid to upper 70s. A wave on the front to our south will pass south of the area Sunday into Monday. This will bring the risk of showers Sunday into Monday but most locations will see little if any rainfall even so. Another large surface high moves in for Tuesday through Wednesday for another period of sunshine and near normal temperatures.
