3/25 – Trey Tonnessen’s “Severe Likely” Monday Evening Forecast
SUMMARY: Severe weather is expected tonight in Mississippi with an enhanced risk of severe weather development. A line of thunderstorms is forecasted for tomorrow morning, with potential strong cells forming ahead of the main line. Strong winds are already present, with temperatures in the upper 60s and 70s. The storm system is expected to move slowly, increasing the risk of individual cells forming and becoming stronger. However, the weather is expected to clear by tomorrow afternoon. The rest of the week looks calm and comfortable, with temperatures in the upper 70s. Severe weather precautions are advised, with multiple ways to receive warnings. Stay safe and download the app for updates.
There is a deep surface low moving through the central Plains today combining with a large area of high pressure dominating all of the eastern Seaboard and into the central Gulf is leading to a rather impressive pressure gradient across the region. Across the viewing area, the pressure gradient is around 8Mb and that typically is more than sufficient to get windy conditions. The winds being this strong has kept the airmass well mixed and thus most places have only just now gotten into the mid 70s. When that is combined with the broken to overcast skies, those combinations limits warming compared to what it could be.
As always: A cloudy day is no match for a sunny disposition. Be nice to each other.

Brutal cold and travel issues remain Wednesday morning
SUMMARY: Despite clear skies and a beautiful sunrise in Gulfport, Mississippi, the cold temperatures remain dangerously low, with some areas experiencing single-digit temperatures. Parker Boyd reports from Jones Park, where the snow-covered landscape gives off a holiday vibe reminiscent of Christmas. While the snow is picturesque, it poses a serious risk due to icy conditions on the roads. Locals, unaccustomed to such weather, are urged to take extra caution when venturing out. The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) is working to clear the roads, but travel may still be challenging across the region.
Snow-packed roads across South Mississippi will be icy and dangerous Wednesday.
