Published 10:58 pm Tuesday, January 24, 2023
If you’re hoping for sunshine and warm temperatures today, you’ll have to travel to the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The rest of the state will struggle to get out of the 40s today with temperatures feeling cooler than that as we continue experiencing some strong wind gusts.
We’re also watching the next rain chances. Right now, it’s looking like we may have another soggy weekend for parts of the state. We’ll know more specifics about that over the next day or two.
The National Weather Service is also watching the potential for some river flooding across the state after heavy rains fell overnight.
