Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Mobile AL
1255 PM CDT Thu Nov 3 2016

.DISCUSSION...See updated information for land areas below.

&&

.UPDATE...A few afternoon showers have popped along the Gulf breeze
moving inland this hour over our coastal zones. Package updated to
reflect.

/16

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 1203 PM CDT Thu Nov 3 2016/

DISCUSSION...See updated information below.

UPDATE...Current package on track. A few convergence/surface
wave/dynamic forcing showers that moved west over the marine portion
of the fa have moved out of the area. Am not removing the isolated
left, with the HRRR still indicating a bit of convergence and
dynamic forcing this afternoon. No updates planned attm.

/16

AVIATION...
18Z issuance...General VFR conditions expected through most of the
forecast. A weak front will cross the area beginning well after
midnight. Am not anticipating any shra ahead or with, nor strong
northerly winds after. Patchy fog overnight may reduce some local
visibilities to mvfr levels closer to sunrise.

/16

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 1018 AM CDT Thu Nov 3 2016/

DISCUSSION...See updated information for land areas below.

UPDATE...A quick update to the Zones to clean out morning fog
wording. No other parameters changed attm.

/16

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 643 AM CDT Thu Nov 3 2016/

DISCUSSION...Updated for latest aviation discussion below.

AVIATION...
12Z issuance...There have been a few instances of patchy IFR or lower
ceilings and visibility restrictions due to fog early this morning,
primarily across southeast MS and far southwest AL. Observations from
KMOB/KBFM/KPNS have primarily remained VFR. Patchy IFR to MVFR fog
should last until around 03.14Z, with VFR otherwise prevailing
through the day. /21

PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 417 AM CDT Thu Nov 3 2016/

NEAR TERM /Now Through Thursday night/...Our forecast area remains
on the northern fringe of an upper level ridge of high pressure
which extends across much of the Gulf of Mexico early this morning.
A surface ridge of high pressure also extends from the Western
Atlantic to the Central Gulf Coast region. Skies are mostly clear
across our area early this morning, and surface observations reveal
that patchy fog has developed across portions of southeast MS and
coastal southwest AL. Fog has been locally dense in a few spots from
Gulf Shores to Pascagoula. We have mentioned patchy dense fog in the
weather grids through around 8 AM or so generally south of a New
Augusta to Gulf Shores line and we will continue to monitor
observations through the early morning hours.

Mid level flow will transition zonal to northwesterly across the
region today and tonight as the upper level ridge continues to
retrograde westward across the Western Gulf of Mexico into southern
portions of TX, and as an upper level trough moves southeastward
from the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley to the Eastern Seaboard.
Surface high pressure over the Southeastern states and Gulf Coast
region will weaken today as a cold front associated with the
aforementioned trough axis pushes southward toward the Mid-
Mississippi and Tennessee Valley this afternoon. The cold front
should make southward progress into northern and central portions of
MS and AL this evening before moving through our forecast area late
tonight into early Friday morning. Prospects for rain look
negligible across our forecast area over the next 24 hours along and
ahead of the approaching front as we enter the 38th day without
measurable rainfall in Mobile and the 37th in Pensacola. Although a
very isolated shower or two cannot be entirely ruled out tonight
along the front, meager deep layer moisture and lack of forcing will
preclude mentionable rain chances in the forecast. Another day of
near-record warmth is expected today, with highs once again forecast
to reach into the mid to upper 80s over interior locations and lower
80s near the beaches. Lows tonight should range from the upper 50s
to lower 60s inland and in the mid to upper 60s near the immediate
coast and beaches. /21

The November 3rd record high temperature for Mobile is 86 set in
1935. In Pensacola, the record high is 85 set in 1957.

SHORT TERM /Friday Through Saturday night/...A cold front will move
south across area during the day on Friday with a cooler and much
drier airmass moving into the area. The lack of significant deep
layer moisture and weak forcing along the front will keep rain from
developing and have maintained a dry forecast. The main change will
be much drier air with PW values falling to below one half inch and a
cooler airmass with much lower humidity levels. Lows Friday night
will range form the upper 40s and low 50s inland to upper 50s along
the coast. Highs on Saturday mid and upper 70s. Saturday night lows
will fall into the mid and upper 40s inland to mid 50s near the
coast. /13

LONG TERM /Sunday Through Wednesday/...Sfc high pressure and upper
ridging builds over the area through early next week, maintaining dry
conditions with temps slightly above normal. Models are in better
agreement on moisture increasing Tuesday into Wednesday with a slight
chance of rain mainly across western zones. However, significant
rainfall is not likely with dry conditions continuing across most of
the area. Temperatures continue near to slightly above climatological
norms. /13

MARINE...A surface ridge of high pressure over the Southeastern
states and Central Gulf Coast early this morning will gradually
weaken today in advance of a cold front that will be approaching the
Mid-Mississippi and Tennessee Valley region. The cold front is
expected to push through the marine area late tonight into early
Friday morning. A light to moderate easterly flow early this morning
should veer southeasterly to southerly late this afternoon, then
westerly by this evening in advance of the approaching front. A
moderate northwesterly to northerly flow will prevail late tonight
into Friday following the frontal passage. High pressure building
into the northern Gulf will promote an increase in northeasterly to
easterly flow Friday night into Saturday, with wind speeds at least
within cautionary levels, if not near advisory thresholds offshore
for several hours late Friday night into Saturday morning. A
moderate easterly flow pattern should prevail late this weekend into
the middle part of next week. /21
