SUMMARY: The weather forecast for today is a beautiful start to the day, but clouds will increase and there will be a chance of rain later on. Temperatures are comfortable, ranging from the 60s to 80s. Winds will increase from the east Southeast, reaching speeds of 10 to 20 mph in the afternoon. A cold front will move towards the area, causing gusty winds. Next week, cooler temperatures are expected with possible overnight lows in the mid-40s. There will be multiple chances of rainfall over the next seven days. Hurricane Tammy has weakened and is now Post-Tropical Tammy.

Thursday October 26th, 2023: This persistent pattern looks to stay around through the short-
term period as upper-level ridging meanders over the northern
Gulf. Surface winds have remained elevated as the deepening low
pressure over the central US tightens the pressure gradient
between it and the surface high over the southeast US. This has
mostly kept our fog development at bay as the high winds help to
mix out the boundary layer enough. Although, where winds remain
light, can`t rule out some patches of fog here or there, not
nearly as dense and widespread as the beginning of the week.
Mentionable PoPs have been added through the river parishes as
CAMs continue to depict shower development in that area where
low-level convergence in the wind field maxes out. The profile
suggests that these showers will be no more than just showers as
we remain too warm aloft from the ridge to promote more robust
storm development.

As the trough over the southern plains ejects off to the
northeast, it will take the surface low with it and that will help
to relax the pressure gradient, which will in turn lower winds
back down. Although winds will be lighter, they will still remain
elevated enough to keep fog development minimal Friday morning.
The ridge will still be in place over us, so expect much of the
same conditions as today, except winds slightly less than
Thursday.

SUMMARY: Despite clear skies and a beautiful sunrise in Gulfport, Mississippi, the cold temperatures remain dangerously low, with some areas experiencing single-digit temperatures. Parker Boyd reports from Jones Park, where the snow-covered landscape gives off a holiday vibe reminiscent of Christmas. While the snow is picturesque, it poses a serious risk due to icy conditions on the roads. Locals, unaccustomed to such weather, are urged to take extra caution when venturing out. The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) is working to clear the roads, but travel may still be challenging across the region.

Snow-packed roads across South Mississippi will be icy and dangerous Wednesday.

SUMMARY: Road conditions in south Mississippi remain hazardous due to icy weather. Meteorologist Aaron Colby reports that many bridges are closed, and roads are covered with up to half an inch of ice, making travel extremely dangerous. While some vehicles are attempting to navigate the area, they are moving very slowly, often under 20 mph. Visibility of ice on roads and the need for extreme caution at intersections are emphasized. Residents are urged to avoid travel if possible and, if necessary, to proceed with extreme caution to prevent accidents. The icy conditions are expected to persist throughout the morning.

Snow-packed roads across South Mississippi will be icy and dangerous through Wednesday morning.

SUMMARY: A snowstorm has hit south Mississippi, leaving up to 10 inches of snow in some areas. Temperatures are dropping into the low 20s, with windchill factors making it feel as cold as -3°F. The National Weather Service has issued a warning about dangerous road conditions, which are expected to worsen overnight and into tomorrow, with icy streets persisting. Although sunshine will help melt ice on main roads, side streets may remain icy. Tomorrow night could bring even colder temperatures, possibly into the teens, with refreezing conditions. The region remains under a weather alert for icy roads through Wednesday.
