Some folks across Mississippi will be waking up to some stormy weather Friday morning while others will need to plan a little extra time for the morning commute.

We’re expecting two rounds of storms Friday with a chance for severe weather in both.

A Level 2 risk stretches from Greenville to Greenwood to Columbus on the northern line all the way to the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The worst of the storms are expected along the Mississippi River and the Delta between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m.; the I-55 corridor from 3 a.m. to 6 a.m.; and the I-59/U. S. Highway 45 corridors and eastern Mississippi between 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. A tiny sliver of a Level 1 covers from Gulfport to Waveland and up to Picayune.

According to the National Weather Service, severe storms are likely in the Level 2 zone. Damaging wind gusts up to 80 miles per hour and hail are also possible. There is also a risk of a tornado or two. The Level 1 includes the same risks without as likely of a threat.

The Gulf Coast counties are also under a heat advisory for most of the day Friday.

Right now, there is a risk for more severe storms Saturday and Saturday night, too, with more storms Sunday. There is no official severe risk for Sunday right now, but it certainly wouldn’t be a surprise to see that come from the National Weather Service.
