Severe Threat Diminishing

* A line of showers and storms continues to push eastward into Alabama. It really seems like the lack of instability kept severe weather at bay for much of the Deep South.

* Tragic news from Jackson - a man was killed on Maple Street in northwest Jackson this evening. Apparently a limb brought down a power line and the man was electrocuted. Details are still emerging.

* Another plus is that the flooding threat isn't as severe as what we anticipated. We do expect the Pearl River to go above flood stage tonight, as well as the Chickasawhay River. But, we are not expecting widespread flooding. The threat will be confined to very near local river banks.

* A few clouds and spotty showers might linger tomorrow, but most areas will stay dry. The good news is that a pattern shift is on the way. We will finally see a break from the stormy weather for a while!
