Stormy Saturday across South Mississippi

BILOXI, Miss. (WLOX) – The WLOX First Alert Weather Team has issued an Alert Day for Saturday, Dec 28, 2024 for expected heavy rain and strong to severe storms into the early morning hours of Sunday.

While the greatest risk for severe weather is just north of the southern six counties of South Mississippi, there is still a threat for a few storms to produce damaging wind gusts, large hail and tornadoes.

The main line of storms is expected to begin moving into the southern six counties after 9 PM. However, if storms can form ahead of the main line before this time period, those storms my have a heightened chance for producing damaging wind gusts and tornadoes.

As the line of storms sweeps across the area, it will also pose a risk for isolated damaging wind gusts and quick spin-up tornadoes.
