Drier and hotter weather settles across the region: Southern MS/AL/LA Weather Forecast – 6/11/22

After an active weather day yesterday, things should be much calmer today. Get out and enjoy the weekend weather, just make sure to keep an eye out for a few pop up storms this afternoon. And drink plenty of water! Highs today across the area will be in the 90s with Heat Index values up around 105F.

The pattern for this weekend, with high pressure in control, will help to foster some very warm temperatures. And that should hold as we move into next week.
