Mississippi Skies: Rain chances increase for some, dry weather for others across Magnolia State
Published 8:44 pm Tuesday, October 10, 2023
We now have a better idea where that Gulf low is heading Wednesday and Wednesday night. Unfortunately, it’s going more towards our east.
We still have some decent rain chances for southern Mississippi, especially towards the beaches, but upstate Mississippi isn’t going to get much rain at all this time around.
Places in Mississippi that do get precipitation Wednesday and Wednesday night could have heavy rain at times. We’ll also have some wind gusts up to 30 miles per hour.
From the National Weather Service:
“Regardless of tropical cyclone development, the system is forecast to produce gale-force winds over portions of the northern Gulf of Mexico by tomorrow (Wednesday), and potentially heavy rainfall along the Gulf Coast by the latter portion of this week. For more information, see products from your local National Weather Service office, and high seas forecasts issued by the National Weather Service.”
