"And the Seventh Day of Christmas, my........"

Today: mostly sunny with a high of 52

Tomorrow: clear for the most part with a low of 34

~Starkville

A very good Friday to you! I hope you all are enjoying this great start to your Friday. After waking up to mostly cloudy skies in the morning in the past days, today started out full of sunshine as you woke up this morning. After having some rain on last night, plenty of sunshine will make for quite a pleasant day with highs having no problems getting up to the lower 50s today. It will make for a good day to start your Christmas shopping, if you haven't started yet with winds out of the northeast at 5 mph.

For most of the day, we will see plenty of the sun out and it will stay rather clear during the early portions of the night. Clouds will start to start increase in the early mornings of Saturday. Temperatures will be around the 33 or 34, but either way it will still be cold. A cold air mass will bring winds out of the northwest which will make conditions even colder.

Looking ahead to the weekend, we are in store for some very cold weather. I'm talking about Saturday night being in the lower 30s and possibly in the upper 20s. A cold air mass is what is going to guide our weather this weekend especially Saturday. With these types of condition underway, it will make for some great Christmas stories around the fireplace. Saturday, we will have temperatures in the mid 40s with overcast conditions for most of the day. By Saturday night, depending on how much clouds in the air, we could see temperatures roughly at 29 or 30 with some clearing. Make sure to bundle up if your anywhere outside for any Christmas festivities. Sunday, the day does look much warmer as clear skies and warmer air will play a big part. High of 55 degrees with lows dipping down to the lower 30s once more.

Enjoy the weekend which I'm sure will be filled with being around family and lots of holiday shopping! Be sure to keep it here for all of your Face of the Sky weather forecasts. God bless!

Thursday forecast on Dec. 17, 2009

Today: high of 47 with increasing clouds
Tomorrow: low of 39 and overcast

~ Starkville, MS

More sunshine today as there were fewer clouds this morning allowing us to see a few rays this morning. Now, since the sun is out more today I believe it will be a little warmer today than yesterday. Yesterday highs only got up to 42 degrees. Highs will get up to the mid 40s with clouds steadly increasing throughout today. Winds will be between 5 to 10 mph changing directions from the north to the east due to an approaching low pressure system in the southern section of the state. This low pressure system does have rain within it, but the majority of that rain will stay below the I-20 corridor because of high pressure that is still present in the southern region, keeping this low pressure system within the southern portion of the state. From this we'll only see more clouds coming in, and by the late afternoon hours we'll be completely under overcast conditions.

By tonight, overcast conditions will limit temperatures from slipping down to the freezing mark again. For two nights straight, we have saw the low at 32. Tonight, we'll be a tad bit warmer with lows in the very upper 30s or lower 40s. Northerly winds will still keep it cool rather. Else where in the state, the northern half of the state will remain dry while the southern half will be under some wet conditions.

Dry and cold conditions will still continue by tomorrow. Looking ahead long term, there is a slight possiblity of snow for Friday night into Saturday morning. At this point, it's certainly will be cold but I think we are just going to be too dry to get anything. Of course, I'm not completely ruling anything out and I'll have more details tomorrow concerning your Face of the Sky forecast! Happy Holidays and God bless!

Wednesday forecast for Dec. 16, 2009

Today: partly cloudy skies with a high of 50; winds out the northeast b/w 5-10 mph

Tonight: mostly cloudy with a low of 32

~Starkville

The clouds continue to hang around in the Starkville area making it look dreary. No worries though as throughout the day, some clearing will occur and we will get some sunshine in the mix. High pressure will continue to maintain it's stay here in the south pushing all the rain further south of us and allowing for dry conditions. With some clearing and little bit of the sun, I believe we'll get a chance to make it to the half-century mark at 50 degrees as your high today. Winds between 5-10 mph will keep things rather cool with it coming out of the north.

A clear night in store for us for tonight with temperatures just around the same degree on last night at 32. Winds will come out of the north at 5 mph. Watch for freeze warnings that may be issued out later tonight. Definitely, keep plants and pets protected and water pipes cover due to possible freezes. Most of the night will stay clear, so if your willing and brave enough you can possibly check out some meteor showers during the overnights. Just be sure to bundle up as you gaze upward at God's spectacular fireworks in the sky.

The clear skies sets us up amply of sunshine for Thursday! I'll be back tomorrow if the Lord's will with another posting of your Face of the Sky forecast! If your not in the Christmas spirit yet, I hope it comes to soon and if your already are then continue to enjoy this holiday of giving! God bless!

Tuesday Forecast: Dec. 15, 2009

Today: high of 49 with a slight chance of rain and overcast conditons
Tonight: low of 33 and partly cloudy

~Starkville

A cloudy day for the most part with very cool conditions. There's a very slight possibility of a stray shower in the area but it will not be a drencher. Highs will only get to the upper 40s as low and thick clouds hangs around for the majority of the day. By the late afternoon hours, we could see some clearing of the clouds which will give us some rays from sun before sunset. Strong northerly winds will keep the air around us cool with wind speed between 7-10 mph and gusting at times at 15.

Tonight, we will see clear skies which will allow for those temperatures to drop very rapidly throughout the night. Overnight lows will be in the lower 30s making for a very chilly night with winds continuing out of the north at 10 mph. Make sure to bring your plants inside and keep water pipes cover as the temperatures gets near the freezing mark.

Although, tomorrow will still be cold but look for plenty of sunshine on Wednesday. Have a wonderful day and always keep it here for your Face of the Sky forecast! God bless!

Monday Forecast on Dec. 14, 2009

Hi everyone! I hope all is well with you! I'm really sorry for not posting my usual and timely weather blogs. I have been so caught up with finals and all and although classes are over with, I'm currently without internet at my apartment. So, there goes my excuse.lol I will still do my best to get you the latest updates on the local weather in the surrounding areas. Well, holiday cheer is in the air and much joy and happiness in the faces of people. I really do love this time of year in which time and giving is heavily focused upon. Upon the season, old man winter pays us another visit with cold and frigid conditions and of course snow in some parts of the country! Lately, its been very cold here with temperatures in the mid 30s.

For today though, nasty weather outside as it will a mostly wet and soggy day. Temperatures will be much warmer than what it has been in these few weeks with highs in the mid 60s. A good chance of showers coming in so make sure to keep those umbrellas in handy as there is a 40% chance of rain in the area. For tonight, stray showers passing as we continue to have these muggy conditions outside. Lows will actually be quite warm in the mid 40s.

Don't expect for this current condition to persist as we have dry but cool airmass on the way which will give us plenty of sunshine for the week. Stay tune for the next weather blog which will be due on tomorrow. God bless!
