Jim Cantore is now heading to Biloxi for Hurricane Zeta

Zeta has weakened to a tropical storm, but is expected to strengthen back to a Category 1 before making landfall Wednesday.

Three Weather Channel personalities will be reporting from the Mississippi Coast on Wednesday, in Biloxi, Pascagoula and Bay St. Louis.

This year will make the seventh year with 11 hurricanes or more, with the last one 2005 with 15.

Gulf Coast weather watchers always wait to see where celebrity Jim Cantore will go, and for this late-season storm he started in Gulfport but is now heading across city lines to Biloxi.

He’s been spotted in photos across the Coast, from the Gulfport Harbor to Boozer’s Brew & Cafe to a video message to Bay-Waveland students telling them to stay home during Zeta.

Bob Mahoney, owner of Mary Mahoney’s in Biloxi, posted a photo with Jim Cantore on Monday night inside his staple restaurant.
