Warm weather will continue this week and weekend. It will be a little unsettled at times because a weak cool front is going to drop into the area Tuesday and meander around for much of the week.

A line of storms is expected to move in after midnight and move out around the morning commute. It will not storm the entire time, in fact, storms are only expected to impact the area, if at all, for less than an hour.

Regardless, winds will gust over 40mph through Friday morning. Wind damage is likeliest from storms in this situation with a lowered widespread tornado threat for Central and Southwest Mississippi. However, it still remains a threat. Friday through Sunday will be sunny and pleasant with highs in the 60s and 70s and lows in the 40s.
