Good morning. Mississippi. I'm Michael Mosby. Step outside right now and you'll feel that thick Gulf air wrapping around you like a warm blanket. We're sitting at 68 degrees after a mild night. And patchy fog is hugging the coast this morning — should burn off by lunch. Today stays mostly cloudy with that southerly breeze pumping in moisture, while jackson climbs to 84 degrees. Down on the coast. Gulfport hits 76, up north around Tupelo. Here comes 82. Winds gust to 20 miles an hour this afternoon, so hold onto your hat if you're outside. As the sun sets. Tonight stays muggy — lows in the mid to upper 60s under mostly cloudy skies. Now here's where things get interesting. Wednesday afternoon, a strong cold front barrels in from Texas bringing scattered showers and thunderstorms. But Wednesday night is the real concern, some of those storms could turn severe with damaging winds, large hail. And tornadoes all possible. Heavy rain too — expect 1 to 2 inches, maybe more in spots. Highs reach the low 80s before the front arrives. Thursday brings a dramatic flip, rain clears out by morning, skies turn sunny, but temperatures crash. Highs only reach the low 60s with gusty north winds making it feel even cooler. That's a 38 degrees-degree drop from Wednesday. The rest of the week looks much better. Friday starts chilly in the low 40s but rebounds to the low 70s under sunny skies. The weekend warms nicely — upper 70s Saturday, low 80s Sunday — before another system arrives Sunday night with more showers and storms. Keep an eye on the sky Wednesday night. We'll have updates as that severe weather threat gets closer. Looking ahead. See you this afternoon.

Good morning. Mississippi. I'm Michael Mosby. If you're heading out early, you're driving blind. Dense fog has draped itself statewide overnight, cutting visibility to a quarter mile in spots. Flip those headlights on and take it slow until 9 A.M. When this mess finally burns off. In But here's thing, once that fog clears, we've got bigger problems rolling in. Severe weather is bearing down this afternoon. A shortwave trough diving southeast is bringing the perfect storm ingredients — unstable air, strong wind shear, steep lapse rates. Translation? Organized thunderstorms with attitude. Up north, storms fire up around midday and march east through the afternoon. We're talking damaging winds and large hail — golf ball size or bigger. Down in Jackson and points south, storms may be more scattered, but any cell that pops will tap into that same volatile atmosphere. Hail is a real threat statewide. Temperature-wise, it's warm and sticky. Northern Mississippi tops out near 75 degrees. Central areas around Jackson climb to 81. The Gulf Coast stays a bit cooler at 75, thanks to that marine influence keeping things in check. South winds around 5 to 10 miles an hour all day. Tonight, storms taper off by mid-evening as the system pushes through. Lows drop to the mid-60s under mostly cloudy skies. For week, tuesday stays warm and mostly dry, low 80s. Wednesday brings round two — another line of potentially severe storms Wednesday evening. Behind that, cooler air finally arrives Thursday with highs in the low 60s and sunshine. The weekend looks dry and pleasant, temps climbing back into the 70s. Keep an eye on the sky this afternoon. See you this afternoon.

Good afternoon. Mississippi. I'm Matt Mullins. If you stepped outside early, you felt it. That thick, muggy air clinging to your skin like a wet towel. Last night's rain dumped over an inch statewide. And those clouds are still loitering this morning. The heavy stuff is done, though. A few stray showers might pop up around noon, but most of you stay dry as skies gradually clear this afternoon. Temperature-wise, we're running warm for early March. Central Mississippi tops out near 76 degrees before cooling to 72 this afternoon. The Gulf Coast sits at 74, dropping to 70. Northern Mississippi reaches 73. Tonight's mild too — lows settle in the upper 50s to mid 60s. Monday brings our next weather story. And it's a doozy. A warm front lifts north, pumping in Gulf moisture and cranking up instability. By afternoon, thunderstorms fire up. And some could turn severe — especially north of Interstate 20. We're talking golf ball-sized hail as the primary threat, with damaging winds and maybe a brief tornado possible. Rain chances hit 60 percent, with highs climbing to 78 in the north, 80 in central areas. And 75 along the coast. Here's the week ahead. Tuesday stays mostly cloudy with highs in the low 80s — no rain. Wednesday's the big one. Another storm system rolls through with showers and thunderstorms likely, especially afternoon and evening. We could see another round of severe weather. Behind that front. Thursday turns cooler and sunny — highs only in the low 60s, with morning lows dropping to the low 40s. Friday and Saturday? Beautiful. Sunshine returns, temps climb back to the 70s. In Bottom line, enjoy the quiet today, but stay weather-aware Monday and Wednesday. See you this evening.

Good morning. Mississippi. I'm Michael Nally. You woke up to an inch of rain and 65 degrees. The wet stuff's not done yet. Thunderstorms are rolling through this morning before tapering off by afternoon. Down along the Gulf Coast, patchy fog and thunderstorms linger through early afternoon. High of 74 degrees. Central Mississippi sees those storms wrapping up by early afternoon, topping out at 75. Up north, scattered rain showers clear out by midday, with highs reaching 73. Tonight stays mild and mostly cloudy. Lows settle in the low to mid-60s statewide — warmer than you'd expect for early March. Monday brings a warmup. Highs climb to the upper 70s to low 80s. But here's the catch. Afternoon thunderstorms develop, especially north of Interstate 20. A few could turn severe with large hail and damaging winds. The threat fades after sunset. Tuesday looks like the warmest day of the week. Highs push into the low 80s under mostly cloudy skies. It stays dry through Tuesday night. Wednesday is when things get active again. Showers and thunderstorms return by afternoon, with another round of severe weather possible. This system brings gusty winds and another inch of beneficial rainfall before clearing out Wednesday night. Behind that front. Thursday turns cooler and sunny. Highs drop to the low to mid-60s — below normal for mid-March. Friday morning brings the coldest temperatures of the week, with lows in the low 40s. The weekend rebounds nicely. Sunshine returns Friday with highs in the low 70s. Saturday stays mostly sunny with temperatures climbing into the mid to upper 70s. Don't forget to spring forward tonight. Clocks move ahead one hour. See you this afternoon.

Good evening. Mississippi. I'm Michael Nally. Well, folks, we've officially skipped spring and gone straight to sauna. We've already picked up almost an inch of rain. And with temperatures sitting **41 degrees above normal**, the air feels thick enough to chew. It's a warm, wet mess out there. In First, a heads-up, **Flash Flood Warnings** are flying for Wilkinson and Amite counties until 9:45 PM. Some spots have seen 4 to 6 inches of rain. And the ground just can't take any more. Meanwhile, a **Severe Thunderstorm Watch** covers parts of south Mississippi until 9 PM. Damaging winds and hail are the main threats there. Let's tour the state. Up in **Tupelo**, you're sitting at 60 degrees under heavy rain. But here's the weird part—temperatures will actually climb overnight into the low 60s as storms roll through. You hit 73 degrees tomorrow, but keep the rain gear handy through the morning. **Jackson** is the bullseye today at 64 degrees. Showers and thunderstorms become likely after 9 PM, with up to another inch of rain possible. It stays incredibly mild tonight, dipping only to 64—running 41 degrees warmer than usual. Sunday brings a high of 75, but storms stick around, especially in the morning. **Down on the Gulf Coast**, it's a soggy one. **Biloxi** sits at 66 degrees with heavy rain and patchy fog. Expect an additional 1 to 2 inches of rain through the night. Highs hit 74 tomorrow, but storms likely continue through the afternoon. Looking ahead, this storm train isn't stopping. Monday pushes highs near 81 degrees with more severe storms possible. Tuesday offers a brief, dry break in the low 80s before another system brings severe weather Wednesday. Then, get this—Thursday crashes into the mid-60s, followed by a sunny Saturday near 80 degrees. If you see water covering the road tonight, turn around. Don't drown. See you tomorrow.

A powerful cold front is barreling in from the west, bringing the most widespread rain we've seen since January. Here comes a soaker. Northern Mississippi is ground zero today. Storms fire up as early as 9 A.M., with the worst action expected between noon and 7 P.M. Highs top out near 78 before crashing to 59 tonight. Damaging winds and hail are the main threats, but a brief tornado can't be ruled out, especially along the front's leading edge. Central Mississippi—including Jackson and Vicksburg—sees the storms roll in by late morning. They peak around 4 P.M. With highs hitting a remarkable 84 degrees. That's 41 degrees above normal, folks. But temperatures fall through the afternoon as the front pushes through, with gusts to 25 miles an hour making things extra feisty. Tonight, storms linger with lows dropping to 63. Down along the Gulf Coast, the severe risk is lower, but you're not in the clear. Expect scattered storms by noon with highs near 74. It will feel more like May than March. Watch for dense fog returning near the coast overnight, reducing visibility to under a mile. Here's your heads-up for the week ahead. Sunday keeps the storms around, especially in the south. We catch a breather Monday, but round two arrives Wednesday with another severe threat statewide. Then, reality hits Thursday—a sharp cooldown drops highs into the mid-60s, finally feeling like March again. If you see standing water on the roads tonight, don't drive through it.

Storms roll in, especially along the coast where rain chances hit 70 percent. Nearly an inch possible up north. Friday the storms clear. And the weekend? Sunshine and 70s. Stay off the burn pile today. The warmth is coming, but let's get through Monday first. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly. And welcome to the Mississippi Weather Podcast — it's Sunday, February 22nd. If you stepped outside early this morning, you felt something shift. We started mild at 42 degrees after yesterday's rain, but that cold front just kicked the door wide open. Right now? Tupelo sits at 31 degrees. Jackson's at 36. The Gulf Coast is holding on to 44. But the wind is *screaming*. Gusts are hitting 30 miles an hour. And they're not letting up. Along the coast, there's a Wind Advisory until 3 PM. But the bigger concern today? Fire danger. Humidity has crashed to 17 percent in spots. And with these winds, the National Weather Service issued Red Flag Warnings for nearly the entire southern half of the state. Any spark could turn into a fast-moving wildfire. No outdoor burning today. Not even a little. Now let's talk cold. Tonight, northern Mississippi drops to 23 degrees by 4 AM — feeling like 15 with the wind. Central Mississippi hits 28, but it'll feel like 21. Even the Gulf Coast, which started mild, crashes to 36 by dawn Monday. Frost is coming. Today's highs? Northern Mississippi peaks at 47 around 4 PM. Central Mississippi hits 52 by 3 PM. The Gulf Coast reaches 56 by 1 PM. But those winds stay relentless all day. Looking at the week ahead. Monday stays cold but starts warming fast. Tuesday jumps to 60 in Jackson, near 70 on the coast. Wednesday hits 73 — almost summer — but clouds roll in. Thursday brings storms, especially north, with heavy rain possible. Friday and Saturday dry out and warm even more, hitting 75 by Saturday. One quick thing. If this weather update helped you plan your day, share it with a friend who could use the heads-up. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Mississippi Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 17th. Folks, here's the deal. Mississippi is running two completely different seasons today. The Gulf Coast woke up feeling like early spring. Northern Mississippi? Still clinging to winter like it owes it money. Up north, you're stepping out to 48 degrees with a light northeast breeze. Skies stay mostly clear, but don't get your hopes up. Highs barely budge. Tonight drops into the upper 30s. Grab that jacket before you head out. Now drive south into central Mississippi. Things warm up nicely to 59 degrees. A light breeze keeps it comfortable. There's a slight chance of a stray shower, but nothing to cancel plans over. Overnight lows settle into the mid 40s. Here's the thing. The Gulf Coast is absolutely stealing the show. Highs near 66 degrees with southwest winds around 5 miles an hour. Just enough humidity to remind you the Gulf is right there. No rain to ruin your Saturday. Even tonight stays pleasant in the upper 50s. Perfect weather for a walk along the beach if you ask me. Sunrise hit at 6:32 this morning. Sunset at 5:19. We're gaining almost 3 minutes of daylight every day now. That's sunshine you can feel building. Air quality is moderate, so if you're sensitive, you'll want to take it easy outside. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. Sunday cools off a touch, but the sunshine sticks around. By midweek, a weak front slides through with scattered showers. Nothing severe. Just a quick rinse. Temperatures hover near normal with highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s. Pretty manageable stuff. Alright. If you're enjoying these morning updates, share us with a neighbor. It really does help more folks find us. Stay safe out there. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Mississippi Weather Podcast. It's Friday, February 16th. Folks, Mississippi can't decide what season it wants to be today. Northern Mississippi wakes up under gray skies with a chance of showers. Highs up there barely crack the upper 60s. That's sweater weather by our standards. Now head south on I-55. Here's the deal. Central Mississippi is living its best life at 77 degrees under mostly dry skies. That's the kind of afternoon where you eat lunch outside and don't regret it. Keep driving down to the Gulf Coast and you're seeing mid 70s with just a whisper of breeze off the water. Perfect for a stroll along the beach in Biloxi. Tonight, northern counties dry out and dip into the 50s. Central and Gulf Coast? You're holding steady in the 60s. Leave those windows cracked if you want free air conditioning. Here's where it gets fun. Saturday brings a statewide warmup. Northern Mississippi climbs to near 70 degrees. Central and the Coast? You're pushing into the mid 80s. In February. Let that sink in. Sunday stays dry with highs holding steady. Slather on sunscreen if you're heading to any outdoor plans this weekend. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. Warmth sticks around like a guest who loves your cooking. Highs stay in the 70s and 80s through Wednesday with no major rainmakers in sight. Air quality sits at moderate today, so sensitive groups might want to take it easy outside. One bright note. Sunrise hits at 6:33 this morning, sunset at 5:18. We're gaining nearly three minutes of daylight every single day now. Spring is creeping closer, folks. Alright.
