*Corrected for wrong season… Guess winter can’t come fast enough. 😒

[WTUS Southeast @WTUSSoutheast]

Today is the final day of Meteorological Summer. But, not feeling anywhere close to fall today.
Hot, muggy with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms, just like summer…

(See thread for tonight’s forecast)

[WTUS Southeast @WTUSSoutheast]

Although, some areas will certainly welcome a cooler than average night tonight with some areas further north potentially seeing upper 50s!

But, overall, a mix of 60s into the mid 70s can be expected tonight into tomorrow morning.

@Pickuptruckdude Shoot.

2 Days away from Meteorological Fall!

But, it doesn’t feel like fall just yet… Highs for today will be averaging the Upper 80s and Lower 90s across our region. Stay cool and hydrated! Localized thunderstorms may cool off some areas.

Hurricane Katrina left 14 dead in Florida & 11 counties in the state had to declare federal disaster areas. Rainfall reached 16in in Perrine. The eye moved over the NHC office which recorded a gust of 87mph. Another gust of 97mph was reported in Homestead Airport. #FLwx

On this Day in 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck Keating Beach, FL as a Mid-end C1. The damages in FL reached $2B & 1M homes were w/o electricity.
Here’s the radar loop of Katrina, as it dips down to the south due to a strengthening ridge in the N Gulf of Mex. #FLwx

Traffic is heavy at I-20 & MS-35 as folks are trying to get off as I-20 & MS-481 is closed Southwest of Forest, MS due to flooding.

If you're out and about, please avoid flooded areas and do not attempt to enter them!

On This Day, 30 Years Ago, Hurricane Andrew was on it’s approach to South Florida where it would make landfall just south of Miami, FL at around 5am, Aug 24.

These are probably one of the most memorable images taken of this devastating feat of nature.

[WTUS Southeast @WTUSSoutheast]

For those in our western states today, stay weather aware and do NOT attempt to cross flooded roadways! Flash flooding may occur later today.

#mswx

[Weather Track US @weathertrackus]

Widespread Light-Moderate Rain is overspreading the Lower MS River Delta region this morning.

Currently, flood prone areas could flood and some flash flooding may ensue later. Be cautious when out and about!

Ah… summer.

Showers and thunderstorms are scattered across the southeast.

Some could be strong to severe. Main threats are gusty winds, flash flooding, and frequent lightning.

[WTUS Southeast @WTUSSoutheast]

Well... that escalated quickly!

NOAA's Hurricane Hunters are en route to investigate INVEST 99L... located over the Bay of Campeche.

The NHC has upped the chance of development in the next 48 hours to 70%.

If 99L becomes a tropical storm, it will be named "Danielle".

Hurricane Charley is officially the 4th strongest landfall in FL on record with sustained winds of 150mph upon landfall. A very dangerous storm, that destroyed many homes & other properties. The impacts to the Carolinas were also major as well.

[Julian Mille☈ @ATLAreaWx]

On This Day: Hurricane Charley ‘04 made landfall in Cayo Costa FL. Major damage was in a narrow but long tracked corridor. From gas stations to homes, they were ripped to shreds. A gust up to 172mph was recorded in Port Charlotte. 35 were killed.

You can make out the dominant eye dying off as Camille underwent an eyewall replacement cycle. Then after that, the secondary eyewall became the dominant. This proved to be catastrophic in the events in the MS Gulf Coast w/ an expanded wind field & reintensification.

[WTUS Southeast @WTUSSoutheast]

Hurricane Camille, one of the strongest tropical cyclones to hit the Gulf coast region. Estimated winds were at 175mph at landfall. Camille had the most tremendous storm surge of 24ft.

Radar loop of Category 5 Hurricane Camille ‘69 making landfall in Mississippi after passing near Louisiana.

I gave it a colorized look for ascetics.

The uncolored version of the OG loop was made by NWS Lake Charles, link will be in the comments. #MSwx #LAwx
