WLBT FIRST ALERT FORECAST

JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - A weak frontal system pushed through Mississippi last night and is now in the Gulf. A North breeze today ushered in some cooler (but seasonal) temperatures for our Saturday. The sunny and dry weather will continue for your Sunday, with only a few high clouds developing. Temperatures will climb back toward 70 in the afternoon.

Next week the warmer temps settle in for a couple of days, but by mid-week we start to see rain chances increasing. There’s a better chance for some storms by Friday and Saturday. There is also a potential for some strong storms by week’s end, though it’s still too early to throw probabilities on it. There’s also a question of just how deep into Mississippi the front has to go to meet up with the right environment to spark those storms. It’s still a week away, but the First Alert Weather Team will continue to monitor and provide updates across all platforms—on-air, online, and through the free First Alert Weather app.
