California Man Stunned by 'Spicy' Thunderstorm In Mississippi
May 30, 2025
When a man from California visited Mississippi and turned on the local news, he wasn’t expecting to get hit with the forecast… and heartburn.
There it was, plain as day on the screen:
“Spicy Thunderstorms Creating Rough Commute To Work.”

Confused but intrigued, he did what any baffled visitor would do — he snapped a photo of the forecast and posted it online. And just like a bolt of lightning, the internet exploded.
"Visiting Mississippi from California," he wrote. "What the h*ll is a 'spicy thunderstorm'?"
Turns out, Mississippi has been so flooded with thunderstorms lately, local meteorologists are apparently reaching into the kitchen spice rack for adjectives. And the comments section? It did not disappoint:
“I live in MS. We've had like only 5 days this month without thunderstorms. My guess is they’re going through adjectives to keep it fresh. But for us locals, it's just another Tuesday.”
“It’s raining jalapeños?”
“Storm’s a-cumin, ma!”
“It goes mild thunderstorm → medium thunderstorm → spicy thunderstorm.”
“It came through Louisiana and picked up that Cajun spice on the way.”
Mississippi residents seem completely unfazed, while Californians are wondering if they need antacids along with their umbrellas.
No word yet on whether next week’s forecast will include “extra crispy lightning” or a “zesty low-pressure system,” but one thing’s for sure: Weather in the south isn’t just unpredictable — it’s flavorful.
