03/27 Ryan’s “Cloudy” Tuesday Night Forecast

It’s still cloudy in South Mississippi today, and it’ll still be cloudy tomorrow and the next day as well. A frontal system is slowly pushing into the area, which will bring at least a “marginal” severe weather threat to the area by Wednesday, but the strongest active weather we’ll see isn’t expected until Thursday afternoon. That’s when we’ll be upgraded to a “slight” severe weather designation, as pockets of heavy rain and stronger thunderstorms are expected as an area of low pressure moves directly overhead. Right now we’re expecting between 1-3″ of rain between Wednesday night and Thursday evening, so a Coastal Flooding Advisory has been issued, and Flash Flooding will be possible. Clearing will begin as early as Good Friday morning, but it won’t be until much later in the day before the clouds thin significantly. Easter weekend is looking spectacular! Temperatures will fall into the low-to-mid 70s across South MS, and the air will be much drier than the last few days have been. Expect the clear and sunny weather to last through the beginning of the week, though clouds will begin to accumulate by next Wednesday, which is around the same time our temperature will begin to climb back into the low 80s.
