Mississippi Skies: Labor Day will be hot! Will it also be soggy?
Published 12:28 am Monday, September 4, 2023
Although it’s still a hot, humid forecast for Labor Day, many of us will also have some soggy conditions to dodge for outdoor barbecues and pool parties. Northern Mississippi and the Gulf Coast have the best chances for heavy rainfall and thunderstorms, but we could have a shower or storm at any given location in the state on Monday.
Despite us having storms throughout the state Monday, the tropics are also calming down. Right now, we only have two named storms to watch! We may have an interesting setup to watch in a couple days but it’s pretty calm right now, just in time for the holiday.
North Mississippi
Mostly cloudy with showers and thunderstorms possible throughout the day. High of 88. Mostly cloudy with a slight chance of a shower or storm overnight. Low of 71.
Central Mississippi

Gulf Coast
