A dynamic weather shift is anticipated for the Southeast tomorrow. A cold front moves in from Louisiana into Mississippi and Alabama, ushering in thunderstorms and potential heavy downpours from Shreveport to Jackson. Severe weather risks are present, notably over Atlanta, with possibilities of damaging winds and localized flooding.

The UV index in Miami is extremely high today at 11, with a burn time of just 11 minutes under direct sunlight.
