JACKSON – The National Weather Service is predicting the Pearl River at Jackson to crest at 38 feet by Sunday.
At that height, homes and businesses in the Byram, Flowood, Jackson, and north Richland areas will be affected by floodwaters. This would also be the third-highest crest in recorded history.
