If you are traveling back to Starkville tomorrow, please monitor weather conditions along your route. Allow extra time and prioritize safe travel.
We're in for some big swings in the weather in the coming days! First, a cold front will bring a very gusty line of showers and storms Sunday night. Damaging winds will be the main concern, and tornadoes will be possible. Winds will be very gusty ahead of and following the line.
