South Mississippi forecast 8/3/21

The “cold front” that passed through yesterday is only named a “cold front” as a technicality. I don’t know that anyone today will be talking about how “cold” it is outside.

It will be technically cooler, sure. But not so much that most people will be walking aorund outside talking about Fall or Winter.

The front has laid up just off the coast and will eventually mosey out, but before it does, will offer another day of showers and storms for the area. Nothing severe is expected, but some storms may feature some heavy rain, frequent lightning and gusty wind.
