Published 1:30 am Friday, January 27, 2023
Today is going to be gorgeous across the state. Unfortunately, we’re expecting a soggy weekend with rain starting in the northern part of the state Saturday evening. The good news is no severe weather is expected other than some heavy rain.
The Pearl, Leaf, and Yazoo rivers are still being monitored by the National Weather Service for flooding. If you live near one of these bodies of water, be sure to watch for any forecast changes once more rain moves in over the next couple of days.
