SUMMARY: WTV meteorologist John Delk addresses a question from Danny Woodrick about tornadoes in non-typical severe weather months in Northern Mississippi. While February to May and October to November are the primary tornado seasons, historical data shows tornadoes have occurred year-round. Charts from the National Weather Service indicate peaks in April, but activity is noted in other months, including tropical tornadoes in September and some occurrences in winter months. Although tornadoes are most common during peak seasons, they can form at any time given the right atmospheric conditions.

SUMMARY: Today‘s weather across Mississippi and Alabama features a sunny, warm Tuesday with temperatures in the upper 70s, rising to lower 80s this afternoon. Overnight lows are expected in the lower 50s, marking a slight increase from recent nights. A high-pressure system is contributing to the warm and dry conditions, resulting in a rainfall deficit, particularly affecting drought conditions in Alabama. Tropical storm Oscar is moving away from Cuba into the central Atlantic without impacting the U.S. The upcoming week will remain sunny with temperatures reaching the upper 80s, while a cold front will bring a cool down by Sunday without rain.
