Today is going to be quite a washout for central and southern Mississippi as that pesky Gulf low works its way upstate. Most of us will have some breezy conditions today with some stronger wind gusts in storms. Our biggest risk from the system remains heavy rainfall.

Our next shot at severe weather comes Saturday. Right now, the Delta and northern central regions of Mississippi are under a Level 2 risk while a Level 1 risk extends from the 2 southward towards into central Mississippi. We’ll know more details tomorrow, but it’s looking like most modes of severe weather, including a tornado, are possible.
