11/08 Ryan's “Dreary” Friday Morning Forecast
SUMMARY: The Weather Authority reports that the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico are largely clear of tropical developments, with the exception of Hurricane Raphael, which has regained major hurricane status but is expected to weaken due to dry air. The hurricane’s forecast track has notably shifted multiple times. Today’s weather will be marked by gray skies and a few possible sprinkles, with a higher chance of showers developing later Saturday and into Sunday morning. The cloudy weather will clear by Monday, leading to upper 70s temperatures, with a midweek front expected to lower temperatures, bringing the first 50-degree morning in some time.
SUMMARY: Good afternoon, South Mississippi. Weatherman Samon reports a 20% chance of tropical development and updates on Hurricane Rafael, currently a Category 2 storm moving west-northwest at 9 mph, likely weakening. Local weather includes scattered pop-up showers throughout the afternoon and mostly cloudy skies, with current temperatures in the low 80s. Humidity is high, creating warmer feels-like temperatures. Overnight lows will drop to 73, with more pop-up rain expected Friday, but significant rain chances increase by Saturday evening into Sunday. A 30% chance of rain is forecasted today, decreasing to 20% tomorrow.
SUMMARY: Good morning, South Mississippi! Currently, there’s a 20% chance of hurricane development. Hurricane Raphael, now a Category 3, weakened over Cuba and is expected to drift westward, away from South Mississippi. While cloud cover and spotty showers are likely today, significant rain is anticipated on Saturday night into Sunday morning from a new front. After Veterans Day, conditions will improve with more sun and cooler temperatures. Another rain chance is expected mid-next week as a front moves through, bringing more fall-like weather. Overall, no major November landfalls are predicted for the U.S. at this time.
SUMMARY: Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson reported a relatively quiet Election Day with no major issues, thanks to vigilant citizens who alerted authorities about potential irregularities. However, voter turnout at around 54-55% was lower than expected, continuing a trend of decline in participation. He noted that absentee ballots, with Harrison County receiving about 14,000, are processed at election headquarters for verification before counting starts after polls close. Counties have ten days to certify and report results. Watson praised the collaborative efforts of Mississippians and election workers in maintaining election integrity.
Mississippi Secretary of State Michael Watson joins to discuss lessons that could be learned from this election here in our state.
