Mississippi Skies: Warm, humid weather with chance of storms continues

Published 1:30 am Monday, May 8, 2023

Our stretch of warm temperatures, increasing humidity levels, and afternoon thunderstorms continues.

The northern half of the state should have plenty of sunshine in the morning, but rain chances increase as the day goes on. Southern regions will begin the day cloudy. Although there may be a few peaks of sun, rain chances increase in the afternoon.

Some of us will also have some of the warmest temperatures of the season so far. A couple places could hit 90 today or tomorrow.
