6/1 – Rob’s Thursday Morning Forecast

Another day of showers and storms for South Mississippi as the tropical airmass stays in place.Rain to the southwest of the area will continue to push toward the northeast, but should stay primarily west of the area. However, with daytime heating,  showers and thunderstorms should  redevelop later this morning and into the afternoon. Once again, as the ground is already saturated from multiple days of rain, flash flooding is the main concern with the heaviest storms. Widespread severe weather is not expected, but stay aware as the strongest storms could produce gusty winds and plenty of lightning.

This weekend is looking wet as the moisture sticks around and disturbances move through the area. The best chance for rain will be Saturday before decreasing slightly for the start of the week. Rain chances will increase once again as a front approaches the area Monday into Tuesday. Once the front passes through expect slightly cooler temperatures and drier conditions.
