Most people in Mississippi couldn’t ask for a better day to begin 2023! Although most of south and central Mississippi are under a dense fog advisory, fog should clear by mid-morning. A warm breeze and sunny skies will greet people returning home from church or waking up from celebrating New Year’s Eve.

We’re still on schedule for some strong storm over the next couple of days, so enjoy today’s springlike weather before having to get back into a normal routine after a couple weeks of holidays.
