First Weather Alert Focus-July 17, 2024
SUMMARY: Good afternoon, everyone. Chief Meteorologist Patrick Big here with your Wednesday WD7 First Alert Weather Focus. We have a lot to discuss, including recent storms in the Midwest, heavy rain in our area, and prospects in the tropics. We’re tracking scattered showers and thunderstorms, cooler temperatures, and widespread rain into the weekend. Illinois and Iowa experienced severe storms and tornadoes, leaving significant damage. The tropics remain quiet for now, thanks to strong high pressure. Monsoon rains continue in the Southwest, with the Southeast facing heavy rain. Expect cooler temperatures and rain for the coming days, but stay cautious of localized flooding.
The First Alert Weather team offers a midweek update on what’s ahead for the Pine Belt on the Wednesday edition of Focus
SUMMARY: Expect two days of impactful weather. Today, a low-pressure system will bring 1 to 2 inches of rain, with potential strong storms in counties south and east, while the metro area likely remains dry around noon. Highs will be in the lower 70s, with breezy and humid conditions. Tomorrow brings another round of severe weather, particularly north of Interstate 20, with tornado and damaging wind threats possible, alongside flash flooding and hail. The weekend’s first part will be wet, but it will dry out by New Year’s Eve. Expect a significant temperature drop as the new year begins.
16 WAPT’s Meteorologist Anthony Bordanaro has the latest forecast for Jackson and Central Mississippi.
