Meteorologist Trey Tonnessen – “Tropical Disturbance” Full Forecast 10/10/2023
SUMMARY: The weather will start off comfortable in the morning and midday, but rain and thunderstorm chances will increase in the afternoon and evening. Temperatures will be similar to yesterday, with highs in the lower 80s. Winds will start to increase as a disturbance approaches from the Gulf of Mexico. Cloud cover will increase throughout the day, with a potential for rainfall across the Gulf Coast. The disturbance is not expected to become a tropical storm or hurricane, but it may bring some rainfall and winds to the area. The temperature will drop over the weekend before warming up again next week.
Drier air and surface high pressure remains favorable for strong diurnal influences which have resulted in temps dipping a little lower than forecast, but should rebound comfortably into the mid-80s by afternoon. High pressure moving east will allow for increased moisture advection and large scale atmospheric lift by tonight. Eyes again shift upstream where a surface low will be moving northward across the western Gulf of Mexico from the start of the long term period. The surface low will eventually merge with a surface stationary frontal boundary along the Gulf Coast. As the surface low interacts with the higher pressure downstream of our area, low level pressure gradient will tighten allowing for an increase in winds, especially over the local waters where Gale conditions are becoming increasingly likely.
SUMMARY: In October 2017, a new world record lightning bolt was detected, flashing across more than 500 miles. A study published in the American Meteorological Society Journal revealed satellite data showing a single lightning strike traveling from Texas through Oklahoma and Arkansas into Missouri. This surpassed the previous record of a lightning bolt stretching over South Mississippi in April 2020. The 2017 lightning event was part of a complex of storms stretching from Texas to South Mississippi, with satellite data indicating the bolt traveled 477 miles, setting a new record for the longest lightning flash ever observed.
The previous record was held by a bolt that flashed across the Gulf Coast and South Mississippi.

SUMMARY: The Attorney General’s office has concluded its investigation into a 2024 officer-involved shooting at the William Bell Apartments in Gulfport. Police responded to reports of screams inside an apartment and found Kendrall Tate actively stabbing another man. The Gulfport police officer involved shot Tate, who later died from his injuries. The AG’s investigation determined the use of force was justified. This finding comes alongside reviews of two other officer-involved shootings in Corinth and Meridian, which were also examined by Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office.
After the investigation by the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, the Attorney General’s Office said the use of force was justified.
