Mississippi – Warm air is already settling over Jackson, and the late-morning sun is pushing temperatures toward a springlike peak. Light winds and dry pavement make for easy travel now, but the bigger story is the sustained warmth building across the region.
According to the National Weather Service in Jackson, highs climb to 85°F today and again Thursday under mostly sunny skies. Calm winds early shift lightly from the south, helping maintain that steady, above-average warmth across central Mississippi.
Conditions stay quiet and stable through Thursday evening. Expect clear skies at times, with comfortable but mild nights in the upper 50s to low 60s. Roads across I-55, I-20, and downtown Jackson remain dry, offering smooth travel for commuters and midday traffic.
By Friday, subtle changes begin. Highs hold in the mid-80s, but a light wind shift signals cooler air approaching. By Friday night, temperatures drop into the low 50s, marking the start of a noticeable cooldown.
Saturday brings a crisp reset. Highs fall to around 72°F with sunshine returning and lower humidity. That cooler air lingers into early Sunday morning, where some neighborhoods may wake up to a brisk feel compared to recent warmth.
The warming trend resumes quickly. By Sunday afternoon, temperatures rebound near 79°F, and early next week pushes back into the low 80s, reinforcing a steady spring pattern.
For now, enjoy the dry stretch and warm air. If you’re heading out later this week, expect changing temperatures but minimal travel disruption.
