Jackson, MS – Skies glow clear and golden across central Mississippi this morning as a stretch of calm December weather continues. The air feels crisp but comfortable, with light winds out of the south and a steady climb toward the lower 60s by midday.
According to the National Weather Service in Jackson, residents can expect mostly sunny skies today, with winds around 10–15 mph adding a touch of warmth before shifting northwest late in the day. Lows tonight will dip into the mid-30s, setting up a cool, quiet stretch through Friday.
While much of the week will feel pleasant, clouds build Saturday evening as a weak front sweeps through the region. A 30% chance of light showers could develop late Saturday into early Sunday, marking the next notable weather change. Rain totals are expected to stay low, but damp roads could affect evening travel or outdoor events.
By Sunday, cooler air filters in behind the front, bringing highs back into the lower 50s and breezy conditions to close out the weekend. Meteorologists say this mild spell fits an early-winter pattern that may flip toward colder, wetter conditions by mid-December across the South.
