5/26 – Night Rob’s “Splendid For Now” Thursday Night Forecast

Stepping outside today was quite refreshing compared to the recent high-humidity affair earlier in the week. High pressure will shape the forecast through the area Friday and Saturday with mostly sunny skies and a less humid flow from the northwest, bringing humidity values in the 30% range Friday, then only slightly higher Saturday. Lows will drop into the mid 60s the next two nights, with highs in the upper 80s through the holiday weekend.
Abundant sunshine will rule through Sunday, with some partial cloudiness Memorial Day as humidity rebounds. We’ll warm further next week, as both afternoon and overnight temps climb a few degrees. Any significant rain chances will hold off until Tuesday or Wednesday.

With less than expected rainfall this morning, river levels are looking better than previously forecast. The Biloxi River near Lyman will crest between 11 and 12 feet Friday evening (below flood stage of 12 ft), and the Wolf River near Gulfport will crest around 7.1 ft early Friday afternoon (flood stage is 8 ft). An enjoyable weekend headed your way.
