Nice week with more storms as we move toward and through the weekend: Southern MS/AL/LA Weather Forecast – 2/5/24

Just a quick forecast this morning as any shot for rain should come to an end this morning and we are looking at a pretty nice week!

Toward the end of the week and through the weekend we will have another chance for rain and storms, but the threat for severe weather is still unclear. The CIPS Analogs guidance shows a bit of a bullseye across parts of the area, but there is still enough wiggle room in the data that we may not have a “big” threat for severe storms.

Until we get there, though, this week should be pretty nice with highs in the 60s and low 70s.
