JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) -We will enjoy another stretch of quiet and pleasant weather through the day today, with plenty of sunshine and highs in the low to mid 80s. It will be a great few days to spend time outdoors.

Warm and dry conditions will continue into the weekend as temperatures climb into the upper 80s, with a few spots in Mississippi in the 90s through the weekend. Mornings will stay mild, with lows mainly in the 60s.

By late Sunday, Gulf moisture will begin creeping back into the region, bringing a slight chance for a few scattered showers or thunderstorms, mainly west of I-55. Most areas, however, should remain dry through the weekend.

Rain and storm chances will increase early next week as a more unsettled pattern develops across the South. More widespread showers and thunderstorms are possible by midweek, and a few stronger storms cannot be ruled out. Forecast details will become clearer over the next several days.
