MM’s Level of Concern

MM’s Forecast for the Plateau
This forecast is tailor-made for the Cumberland Plateau by Meteorologist Mark Baldwin each day!
A return to sunnier skies.
It may take some time, but skies should get clearer as we go through our morning.
Some of you all in the colder spots on the plateau may see some patchy light frost Friday morning. Just be aware of that.
The forecast for Saturday doesn’t look bad at all, but there may be the slightest risk for a shower or a storm.
A better chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms arrives Sunday and Sunday night, followed by a drier Monday.



Threats Being Monitored in the 3-7 Day Outlook

Yesterday’s Storm Reports
A long track tornado occurred with an isolated supercell in southern Mississippi yesterday evening.

I used weatherTAP to look at it with 3D scans. What a storm!
