Heavy rain continues in areas south of I-20 into this afternoon. A flash flood watch has been issued until 7pm for Walthall, Pike, Amite, Wilkinson, Copiah, Covington, Forrest, Jefferson Davis, Jones, Lamar, Lawrence, Lincoln, Marion, Simpson, Counties.
Rain will begin decreasing in coverage and intensity by mid to late afternoon. For the rest of us (along and north of I-20), expect hit and miss showers/storms, but the heaviest rain will remain over South Mississippi. Due to the clouds and rain, temperatures hold in the middle to upper 80s; locations receiving heavy rain will drop into the 70s. Additional hit and miss storms develop Tuesday, then the heat returns Wednesday with highs in the 90s for the remainder of this week.
