SUMMARY: The speaker brings attention to the long-awaited rainfall in the Southeast, especially in Mississippi and Alabama. They use a radar graphic to illustrate the rain coverage. High school football games may be affected by rain, with various schools in cities like Decatur and Collinsville expected to experience showers. People attending games are advised to bring rain gear as the rain is set to continue into the night and may include scattered showers or a possible thunder rumble, tapering off around 10 p.m. The forecast shows isolated showers in the morning, so Veterans Day plans may be better scheduled for the afternoon. The rain helps to alleviate drought conditions in the region, contributing to a desired 3 to 5 inches by Wednesday, moving towards the 12 to 15 inches needed in central Mississippi. Current temperatures are below average for this time of year, and the upcoming week will continue the trend with chances of rain.
