Across the area: forecasters expect a Friday cool-down
The National Weather Service in Memphis said at 1:14 p.m. Monday that much of the Mid-South should remain in the upper 80s to low 90s through at least Thursday. Its current regional outlook calls for a cold front Friday, with many places in the 60s and 70s over the weekend and limited rain from the front.
