SUMMARY: Meteorologist Taylor Graham reports beautiful weather in South Mississippi amid concerns for Florida, where Hurricane Milton has intensified to Category 5 with winds at 165 mph. The hurricane is expected to weaken slightly before making landfall near Tampa Bay on Thursday morning, retaining hurricane strength even as it crosses Florida. High storm surges, possibly reaching 15 feet, pose significant risks. In South Mississippi, conditions are delightfully crisp, with low humidity and mid-80s temperatures. The upcoming forecast promises clear skies and pleasant, fall-like weather, perfect for Cruisin’ the Coast, with no rain anticipated through the weekend.

Milton becomes a Cat 5 again. Great weather for Cruisin’ this week.
