Thanks, with that system moving through central MS on Thursday night, what direction will the wind be blowing in the Memphis area Thursday afternoon?

Should be from the south.

Could you give a forecast for orange beach / gulf shores please

If you're referring to tonight then you can expect severe storms and possible tornadoes. A few tornadoes could be strong. Non storm winds will be gusting up to 50mph this afternoon through Tuesday morning.

They just cancelled school in the panhandle because of expected 60 mph gusts. I’m going to try and head to the beach to look at the waves. They are supposed to get to 15 ft.

I would love to see any pics / videos you get.

This is a webcam site I use to see what the conditions look like for kayaking. Looks like the wind and rain are making things blurry.

Dang. It's already not looking great down there.

Yeah I just looked at it. There is normally twice as much distance between the dune and the water. That wind is really pushing that water already. They closed Pickens for the next two days.

Already reports of power outages and downed trees in north MS. Sturgis was covered in hail earlier. We do not recommend travel anywhere in the state tonight due to weather conditions unless necessary. If you do have to travel slow down to allow more time to react sudden obstructions in the road.

Ah, the holy trinity of Ms weather supplies!

They’ve either closed schools or pushed back start times down here in lower Alabama….enterprise/dothan area. They’ve said 50 mph gusts. Back in 07-08 ish, big storm ripped apart the high school. Hope it ain’t taking another shot.

Any update on Thursday/Friday? We are flying out of Jackson at 7:45 AM Friday for vacation.

just a reminder, @PooPopsBaldHead recommended tire cables for icy roads. Y’all might want to get a pair. I couldn’t find the thread where we discussed it about this time last year.

Nothing has really changed. SPC has maintained a slight risk due to some unknowns on how some parameters are going to come together. If they come in favoring severe weather then I can almost guarantee the threat level will be increased. Timing, unfortunately, looks to be mid morning to early afternoon so that might screw around with your flight, but that is also too early to nail down at this time.

Thanks!

Since you took over for IMPP (and you're doing a great job by the way) little suggestion that you include a weather lady on your weather posts.

Got a notice on my phone about Ice event for Sunday night into Monday for Tupelo. What are you seeing/thinking about this?

At least some of the dorms open back up Friday in Vegas if not all, my daughter was planning on driving up from the coast that day at some point. We're wondering now if she might have to wait until Saturday or not.

Throw a set or two of these bad boys in the garage and use em once every year or so if you live north of Starkville. Very cheap date. Wish someone had told me when I lived in the South... Trust me, I now spend more time driving on snow and ice than actual pavement.

Current timing has MS in the clear by late morning, so unless she planned on leaving at 4:00am probably won't be too bad.

There is a chance parts of north MS sees some snow and a little ice early next week, but as is any winter forecast for this part of the world, it's still way too early to hammer out any details. I will say that the models are starting to become pretty consistent for NW MS, NE, AR, and west TN to see some decent snow. My definition of decent is at least 3". (Not what she said). The rest of us will probably be measuring snow like the guy fished out of the Bass Pro aquarium.

After having to line up a tree guy, an electrician, entergy, ATT, and a city inspector yesterday morning before i could even leave my driveway… I’m not looking forward to this at all.
