Several chances of thunderstorms will bring several chances of severe weather between Sunday and Wednesday. Although the main threat is shaping up to arrive Wednesday, various parts of the state will have various risks at various times.

According to the National Weather Service, a Level 1 risk covers the northwestern and western Mississippi Sunday and Monday from 3 p.m. until 9 p.m. each day. Communities included in the risk area are Natchez, Vicksburg, Yazoo City, Greenwood, Greenville, and Cleveland.

We’re not expecting a washout, but isolated storms. Storms that do develop could become severe with damaging winds and hail.

For Wednesday, just about the entire state is already under a Level 2 risk. We’re still a few days out so details can change, but all modes of severe weather seem possible at this time, including tornadoes.

Models are showing Monday to be mostly cloudy across most of the Magnolia State. Some of us could be lucky to have enough clearing to see the eclipse, but many of us will be too cloudy.
