Snow not likely for Warren County; temps to remain dangerously low

Published 5:29 pm Monday, January 20, 2025

Chances for any snow accumulation in the Vicksburg area are slim, meteorologists with the National Weather Service (NWS) said Monday afternoon.

“There won’t’ be much if any snow, everything has shifted south,” NWS meteorologist Mike Hill said.

Some areas may see a “dusting,” he said, “but nothing more than a half (inch), and that’s being generous.”

However, temperatures will be dangerously low.

“We can expect temperatures to be in the low 20s with wind chills in the teens,” Hill said.

Monday afternoon, officials with the Vicksburg Warren School District, Vicksburg Catholic School and Porter’s Chapel Academy all said schools will be closed Tuesday.
