7/2 – Trey Tonnessen's “Busy Beryl” Tuesday Morning Forecast
SUMMARY: Good morning, South Mississippi. Expect heat, humidity, and real feel temperatures over 100°F again today. However, a stalling boundary and low-pressure system may bring clouds, showers, and pop-up thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. Hurricane Barrel, now a category five storm, is moving through the Atlantic and poses a threat to areas like Jamaica. The storm's strength is historic and poses dangers such as strong winds and life-threatening storm surge. If the hurricane encounters land, it will weaken, which could benefit us by reducing its impact. High-pressure systems will steer the storm's path, potentially keeping it further south.
