It was warm and muggy today. It will be a bit foggy/hazy along the coastal areas. Heading into the evening, we expect more scattered showers and thunderstorms. Some of the thunderstorms could be strong to severe. Most of South Mississippi is under a Slight (2 out of 5) risk tonight. Our main threats: damaging wind gusts in thunderstorms, quick spin-up tornadoes and heavy rain which could lead to flooding.
After the early morning rains moved out, it turned into a nice Wednesday, and as far as the 2022 hurricane season’s concerned, we had a lot of nice days.
With damage from Ian estimated at several times that and the Fort Myers area beginning a cleanup that will be even larger than after Michael, the two areas are collaborating on a way forward as south Florida residents wonder what their area will look like in a few years.
Tropical Storm Karl’s forward movement has stalled off Mexico’s southern Gulf coast, though forecasters say the halt should be brief and expect it to begin moving southward toward land early Thursday.
President Joe Biden on Monday will survey damage from Hurricane Fiona in Puerto Rico, where tens of thousands of people are still without power two weeks after the storm hit.
As we get a new perspective of how widespread and devastating the destruction from Ian is to the state of Florida, environmental experts say this shows the future of Gulf Coast communities will look a lot different and the impacts hit a lot closer to home than we may think.
More than half a million people in Puerto Rico remained without water service on Wednesday — three days after Hurricane Fiona slammed into the U.S. territory — sending many to line up for hours to fill jugs from water trucks and others to scoop water from mountain runoff.
Hurricane Fiona unleashed more rain on Puerto Rico on Monday, a day after the storm knocked out power and water to most of the island, and National Guard troops rescued hundreds of people who got stranded.
