9/18 – Jeff’s “Cool & Comfortable” Monday Night Forecast

It will be lovely out the door tomorrow with clear skies and light northeasterly winds allowing for temperatures to cool off. Sunshine will be dominant again, with only the possibility for a few afternoon clouds. Winds will become southerly in the afternoon with humidity remaining at bay.

Some increases in moisture will lead to slight changes in humidity, more cloud cover at times, and 20% chances of rainfall Wednesday and Thursday. A developing tropical entity off the Southeast Coast will actually lead to more northerly winds bringing in drier air for the end of the week. The next opportunities for rainfall arrive ahead of a cold front early next week. Details will become clearer as we get closer to that time, but rain chances are in play Sunday and Monday.

The tropics remain quiet for our concerns in Coastal Mississippi. Nigel is an intensifying hurricane in the middle of the Atlantic and poses no threat to land. A tropical wave moving off the coast of Africa will be poised to develop this week. It is well away from even reaching the Caribbean Sea, but most guidance keeps the Gulf of Mexico free of any activity for at least the next week.
