Showers diminishing overnight

Showers and storms are in eastern South Mississippi tonight. The rain and clouds will help to cool our temps into the 70s tonight.

Most of us will start out dry Wednesday morning. Wednesday afternoon will be another very hot and humid day with highs in the mid 90s. Stay hydrated and listen to your body in this heat. Showers and storms are possible in the afternoon and evening. Once again, there’s a low risk for severe weather, but a few storms could have gusty winds and heavy rain.

More widespread showers and storms are likely on Thursday and Friday. With more rain and cloud cover, high temperatures will be in the upper 80s.

A tropical wave in the Caribbean will move into the Western Gulf by the weekend. There is a low chance it could become a tropical depression or storm. We’ll watch closely, but for now it is not a threat to South Mississippi.
