JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) -Today brings a classic summer setup, with highs in the low to mid-90s. It will feel even warmer, as heat index values push into the upper 90s. Looking ahead, the heat will intensify later this week, with both actual and our feels-like temperatures climbing steadily. By mid-to-late week, heat indices could reach the low 100s.
Rain chances remain low today, but a few isolated storms may develop between 12 PM and 8 PM. Some of these could turn strong, producing gusty winds and small hail, similar to what we’ve seen recently. Not every area will see storms, but it’s wise to keep an eye on the sky this afternoon…
