Passing showers and storms this afternoon/evening today & tomorrow: Southern MS/AL/LA Weather Forecast – 5/3/24

We’ve got a bit of fog this morning. But aside from that, things should be decent as you get out the door.

It’ll be another day that is mostly dry with a few folks that see some rain. That shot for showers and storms will be this afternoon and evening, but storms should be well below severe limits and will offer a shot for a brief heavy rain, lightning and some gusty wind.

Then we play the same song and dance tomorrow, too.

Sunday, things should calm down but then next week we may again see passing storms possible as MCSs try to sneak toward the Gulf.
