SUMMARY: Today in South Mississippi, expect sunshine and temperatures climbing into the low to mid-70s, following a chilly morning. The clear skies make for a perfect outdoor day, but conditions may change this weekend as stormy weather approaches. A significant chance of severe thunderstorms is forecasted for Saturday due to an area of low pressure and a cold front, particularly affecting Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia. Rainfall could reach 2 to 4 inches in some areas, with potential for strong winds and hail. After the storms, a more pleasant Sunday is anticipated before cooler air returns next week.

Meteorologist Taylor Graham details the sunshine today with highs in the low to mid 70s. Plus, a look ahead to the stormy forecast this weekend.
