Showers and storms return SaturdayShowers and storms moved across South Mississippi Friday afternoon helping cool us down! Spotty to scattered showers and storms will be possible Saturday afternoon as well. We continue to keep an eye on Tropical Storm Beryl. Beryl is expected to move into the western Gulf and strengthen as it approaches the Texas coast. Beryl is expected to weaken as it moves inland towards the Ark-La-Tex region. Impacts will remain west of South Mississippi. Possibly some higher than usual tides for us with Beryl to our west and a high pressure ridge to our east, this could cause breezy winds from the south by the middle of the week.8 hours ago
