South Mississippi Forecast 6/30/21

Author: || Published: 6/30/2021 at 6:28am

As we continue to monitor the tropics, locally the weather feels rather tropical. A lot of shower and thunderstorm activity in the forecast for the coming days with a very humid airmass in place.

This humid airmass has no plans of moving, either. A late-season front is going to try to make a run at the Gulf, but the latest model guidance – and human thinking, too – is that the front isn’t going to make it much farther south than I-20.

Instead, all it will do is increase the amount of ‘umph’ in the atmosphere to develop showers and storms. So we will see a bump in the chance for rain.

One thought on “South Mississippi Forecast 6/30/21”

  1. The weather team on WDAM seem to think that the front will make it all the way down to the coast … slightly into the Gulf, perhaps. In fact, they’re saying rain chances on Sunday may need to be scaled back some. Are they wrong?
