SUMMARY: The Weather Authority is predicting severe weather in Mississippi with an enhanced risk for severe weather in the orange-shaded areas and a slight risk in the yellow-shaded areas. Alerts are in place for gale warnings, wind advisories, and tornado watches. A cold front is driving a line of storms towards the Gulf Coast, with uncertainty whether the storms will be in a linear segment or broken up into individual cells. Strong winds and warm, humid air are contributing to the severe weather risk. Models show the storms moving through by late morning, with the possibility of individual cellular storms increasing the tornado threat. Stay tuned for updates on the evolving weather situation.

There are some small indications that the mid level heights could rise a little, but will likely remain steady all night and not actually drop until the early morning hours. The low level wind field already has been responding to the increase in lift but as the bulk of the strong mid level punch move into the northern portions of the Lower Mississippi Valley, the low level jet that was developing over the western Gulf and has aided in the convection off to our west will quickly lift north into Mississippi tonight and we could be at the tale end of the low level jet with the core all the way over western Tennessee. This would actually promote low level divergence as stronger southerly winds over southern Mississippi remove the air faster than the slightly weaker winds over Southern Louisiana can replace it.

As always: A cloudy day is no match for a sunny disposition. Be nice to each other.
