SUMMARY: Weather patterns are changing with rain and thunderstorms moving closer to the Mississippi Gulf Coast after weeks of sunshine and dry weather. A frontal system is approaching, bringing rain to parts of Southern Louisiana and Central Mississippi. Friday will see wet weather across the Gulf Coast, with relief from drought conditions. The front may stall out, prolonging the rain. The forecast includes scattered showers over the next few days, with Friday being the heaviest rainfall. Thunderstorms are not a major concern, but temperatures will not drop significantly. Overall, the Gulf Coast is expected to receive a decent amount of refreshing rainfall.

Thursday November 9th, 2023: The past few weeks have been characterized by continued sunshine and warm temperatures on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Alongside our warm second half of October and warm first half of November, there have been drawbacks. As we came into the fall season carrying over slight drought conditions from summer, our long dry and warm strings have placed southern Mississippi into decently concerning drought categories. Thankfully, as Thursday night turns into Friday morning, the weather pattern will quickly begin the process of flipping to one where the entire southern half of Mississippi will see drought relief.

A cold front currently stretching from New York through northern Mississippi and into central Texas, will continue to progress slowly southeastward and should make its way into the local area by Friday morning. The front is expected to crawl into the northern Gulf and stall as upper flow becomes parallel to the boundary. The front will sit there through the remainder of the weekend. With big moisture over the Gulf Coast, we should see widespread showers across the region associated with the front itself, though amounts won`t be overly impressive. Even after the surface boundary slides into the Gulf, rain chances will remain elevated following that.

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