Storms possible Sunday evening/night

A storm system developing over the Western U.S. will cross the Plains states tomorrow, and could negatively affect our weather Sunday evening into Monday morning.  The Storm Prediction Center says "an appreciable severe event is possible" for late Sunday.

This graphic depicts the possibility of severe weather for Sunday.  Colors correspond to probability for severe storms within 25 miles of any given point.   The hatched area indicates a 10% or greater probability of a significant severe weather event within 25 miles of a point.

As you can see, all of North Mississippi falls within the 30% probability area for severe storms.  Additionally, the same area has the additional 10% chance for significant severe weather events.


The graphic below is prepared by the National Weather Service Jackson, MS office, and represents a more local version of the information shown above.


We'll provide more up-to-date information as it becomes available on Sunday.
