Showers and storms are still in the forecast as we head through the overnight hours tonight and into tomorrow morning. The Storm Prediction Center still has sections of the region in a Marginal Risk for severe weather, given the potential for some of the storms to produce some wind gusts exceeding 60mph.
As of now, it looks like the potential for severe weather will be limited given that the boundary between the higher dewpoints and warmer temperatures will outrun the convection by tomorrow morning. Because this isn’t a ‘real deal’ cold front, it means that a cold pool diving toward the southeast doesn’t automatically mean storms developing along the leading edge.
That lack of storms along the leading edge of the boundary should limit the chance for storms to be severe.
Beyond tomorrow, as we move into next week, things will be getting rather toasty across parts of the Southern MS/AL/LA region. As high pressure builds over the region, it will push temperatures into the 90s.
The area of low pressure off the east coast will slowly drift back toward Florida and Georgia. There is still some question about where it goes from there. The farther west it drifts, the more is would help to cool down temps across the area as we head toward next weekend.
