Frosty start, warming up this week, storms by Friday: Southern MS/AL/LA Weather Forecast – 3/20/23

After a frosty morning, it looks like we will have a steady warm up this week before the next system crashes through the area with another shot for severe weather.

Well, I suppose there is a chance for one more frosty morning tomorrow morning, but tomorow highs will get back into the 60s.

Then we enjoy a steady warm up, with no more frost, and by Friday and into Saturday we look at another shot for storms across the area. The Storm Prediction Center has already outlined the area with a Slight Risk for severe weather.
