SUMMARY: The Weather Authority reports that the current clear and cold weather will change tomorrow with the arrival of a storm system moving from the West Northwest. The system will bring rain, thunderstorms, and possible severe weather in the afternoon and evening, with temperatures in the mid-40s and potential wind and wintry mix in some areas. The system will move out by Saturday morning, with high pressure and clear weather returning. A level one out of five severe risk is forecasted for tomorrow, so people should be prepared and weather aware. Temperature changes won’t be significant, and the weather pattern will be dominated by storms and showers in the upcoming days.

Thursday night, weak high pressure is moving east, as an upper level trough will push in and bring in strong low pressure into the area Friday night. Showers/Rain are both likely; and some elevated thunderstorms are certainly possible. While the severe risk seems low, all severe development can’t be completely ruled out, especially near the coast.

On the Democratic side, Brandon Presley, the 2023 nominee, is considered the odds-on favorite to run again and likely secure the party’s nomination in 2027.

SUMMARY: The 4th of July celebrations come with important safety precautions. In Buxy, fireworks are usually illegal except on special occasions like Independence Day. Police Lieutenant Candace Young advises treating fireworks as explosives, keeping children from using them, and staying in safe, clear areas away from people and houses. Fireworks can distress pets, so bring animals indoors to prevent them from fleeing. Boaters should avoid designated fireworks-free zones in the sound and never operate a boat under the influence. A detailed map of restricted areas is available on Buxy’s website. Expect heavy traffic near the official fireworks show along Beach Boulevard.
