KMSY Day 8

Relative to five of our previous seven forecasts for KMSY, day 8 is rather BORING! The Mardi Gras Black Majic witch has given us a break. While the forecast is much easier to determine, scoring against other forecasters will be much tougher.

A relaxed gradient along with mean high Pressure over the gulf will keep sfc winds light. A weak disturbance to the NW of the FC area will be blocked out by the H for the FC peroid. FC area will be upstream of UL trough axis reinforcing mean H.

Looks for winds out of the SW becoming south. Max sustained winds should not exceed 10KT.
Low temp will come at the beginning of the peroid and should bottom out around 40, maybe a bit higher. Keep an eye on the dewpoint as the day rolls along.
High temp will come past the peak of SFC heating and should top out somewhere near 70.
