SUMMARY: Welcome back to Good Morning Mississippi Nature Trivia! Today’s questions cover fascinating nature facts. The largest alligator found in Mississippi was a massive 14 feet 3 inches and weighed 800 pounds — a real giant. The Dachshund dog breed’s name means “badger dog” in German, bred to flush badgers from their burrows. We explored identifying flowers, including the hibiscus and dragon’s head, plus learned a cockroach’s heart surprisingly has 13 chambers. Trivia fun combines surprising nature knowledge with some friendly competition. It’s a great reminder to appreciate and learn more about the natural world around us.

Bill, Brandy, and Wesley test their nature knowledge on the first day of May.

SUMMARY: The weather across South Mississippi remains calm and warm, with temperatures in the 70s. A cold front moving through Texas brings showers and thunderstorms to the north, but the Magnolia State stays quiet. Overnight, temperatures will stay mild in the lower 70s, thanks to cloud cover. By Thursday, scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected, with Friday holding a higher chance for stronger storms. Saturday will see lingering rain, but after the front moves through, humidity will decrease, making for a pleasant weekend. A weather alert is advised for Thursday and Friday.
