FIRST ALERT:Tropics update & weekend forecast (08/02/2025)
SUMMARY: Good evening, South Mississippi. Meteorologist Hither Grim reports typical summer weather this weekend: hot, humid, with scattered showers and storms. Some spots, like Gulfport and north of I-10, saw 2-3 inches of rain, providing temporary relief. Overnight rain chances remain low, with Sunday morning mostly dry—good for outdoor activities or church. A weak boundary along the coast and a low-pressure area will maintain daily, hit-or-miss showers and storms through midweek. Temperatures will be in the upper 80s to low 90s, near average. No Gulf Coast tropical threats now, but two Atlantic systems are being monitored, with more activity expected later in August and September.
