2/25 – Warm on Thursday with a few showers late in the day

Meteorologist Sam Lucey has a look at your forecast

It’s another mild night across the Mississippi Gulf Coast with mostly cloudy skies and temperatures only dropping to around 61. We have a small chance for a quick shower in the afternoon on Thursday, with highs warming into the low 70s.

Rain becomes more likely heading into the overnight, and a few thunderstorms could roll through late. Showers may linger into Friday morning, but we should see gradual clearing by the afternoon with highs in the mid 70s.

The weekend looks mostly sunny and dry with highs in the 70s and comfortable mornings in the 50s. That warm, spring-like pattern sticks around into early next week.
