We’ll have another unique situation Sunday across most of the state. In contrast to last weekend, we’re not expecting widespread severe weather. What is possible is that just about any isolated storm that develops from Sunday morning until Sunday night could become severe quickly with strong winds, hail, and torrential rainfall. The tornado threat is low, but not zero.

The only areas not in the Level 2, but still under a Level 1, are the southwestern corner near Natchez and the six lower counties near the Gulf Coast. Storms are still possible in these areas, but confidence is not as high for multiple rounds of storms.

As expected, Tropical Storm Bret is now known as “Remnants of Bret.” Cindy has started the hard turn north, heading towards Bermuda, and is not a threat to the Gulf Coast.
