Hurricane Ian stays east, fire dangers locally: Southern MS/AL/LA Weather Forecast- 9/27/22

It still looks like Hurricane Ian is headed toward Florida, with no real, true threat to turn west and toward the central Gulf Coast.

Instead, we end up on the west side of Ian with some drier air mixing down with breezy conditions that will lead toward fire concerns.

And the increased fire danger is evident across the entire area. So if you have any plans to do some outdoor burning, if you could put that off for a few days, it would be greatly appreciated by your friends and neighbors. And local fire departments.

Otherwise, it will be dry and breezy with plenty of sunshine.
