Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mobile AL
654 PM CDT Thu May 4 2017

.DISCUSSION...Updated for latest aviation discussion below.

&&

.AVIATION...
00Z issuance...MVFR to low end VFR ceilings will continue for
another few hours across coastal portions of the region, including
around KMOB/KBFM/KPNS before the low clouds are expected to
gradually scatter later this evening. Low cigs may linger over
interior areas through the overnight hours. Gusty northwest winds
will continue through the period. /21

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 331 PM CDT Thu May 4 2017/

NEAR TERM /Now Through Friday/...A deep upper low near the
lower Mississippi river valley and occluded surface low move
slowly into the central eastern states through the period, with
occasionally breezy northwest winds ushering cooler and drier air
into the forecast area. Showers located along a cold front
currently over the mid section of the forecast area will be
located east of the area by the beginning of the period (or very
nearly so) as the cold front continues off to the east, leaving
dry conditions prevailing for tonight. May have some wrap around
isolated showers over interior areas on Friday, but otherwise dry
conditions prevail on Friday as well. Have kept a High Surf
Advisory in effect for the western Florida panhandle until 6 pm to
allow for slowly subsiding surf. A High Risk of Rip Currents
continues along beach areas until 7 pm this evening, after which a
moderate risk of rip currents is in effect. Lows tonight will be
near the upper 40s for much of the area except for lower 50s
closer to the coast. Highs on Friday range from the mid to upper
60s well inland to 70-75 closer to the coast. /29

SHORT TERM /Friday night Through Sunday night/...Northwest flow
ushers in cooler and drier air through the weekend as a deep upper-
level trough shifts east over the Atlantic coast and a strong ridge
builds over the Great Plains. As a result, our area can expect
temporary relief from the warm and humid weather, as dewpoints dip
into the 40's and highs range from the mid to upper 70's Saturday
and upper 70's to low 80's Sunday. Lows will likewise become quite
cool beneath clearing skies, calming winds, and drier air, with
temps dipping into the mid to upper 40's Friday night and then the
low 50's Saturday and Sunday nights. /49

LONG TERM /Monday Through Thursday/...A warming trend returns next
week as the aforementioned upper-level ridge over the Great Plains
begins to push east over the local area. With plenty of subsidence
aloft, expect rain-free skies and high temps in the mid to upper
80's each afternoon through the long term. Overnight lows see a
similar warming trend, with temps in the upper 50's to low 60's
Monday night becoming mid to upper 60's by the end of the week.
Guidance suggests another trough ejecting from the southwest U.S.
and traversing the southern Plains at the end of next week, with a
possible uptick in precip chances over our area next weekend. /49

MARINE...Strong westerly winds in the wake of a cold frontal
passage become northwest tonight and continue until subsiding
Friday night into Saturday. Have continued with a small craft
advisory for the Gulf waters until 7 am Saturday, but now have the
bays and protected waters expiring Friday evening as the offshore
flow begins to subside. A light to moderate west to northwest flow
prevails for Saturday through Monday, becoming easterly on
Tuesday. /29

&&

.MOB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

FL...High Rip Current Risk until 4 AM CDT Friday for FLZ202-204-206.
