Waking Up with Wesley: Heat index could get close to 90, more pop-up showers possible (4/23/2025)
SUMMARY: Senior meteorologist Wesley Williams forecasts a warm, humid day in South Mississippi. On Wednesday, April 23, 2025, the heat index could approach 90°F, expected earlier than usual. While some regions, particularly north of I-10, face a 30-50% chance of afternoon showers and storms, coastal areas like Gulfport may experience lower chances. Thunderstorms in Texas are predicted to move east but may diminish due to a blocking high-pressure system. As the week progresses, rain chances will decrease, with temperatures climbing into the mid to upper 80s over the weekend. Stay prepared for potential heat index near 90°F.
Senior Meteorologist Wesley Williams details how the heat index may reach the upper 80s to around 90° in a few spots today, along with a chance for pop-up showers and thunderstorms.
