NWS Mobile, AL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 3, 8:04 AM CDT, 50 minutes earlier.

NEAR TERM...
(Now through Tuesday)
Issued at 404 AM CDT Mon Apr 3 2023

A warm front will continue to lift north across the area this
morning as a shortwave approaches from the west. The deep layer
lift associated with the shortwave combined with the lifting warm
front will bring a round of scattered to numerous showers and
thunderstorms to the area this morning. The highest rain chances
will be across the inland areas closer to the best forcing
associated with the shortwave track. The increased instability
combined with favorable deep layer shear will support the risk of
isolated severe thunderstorms this morning especially along and
south of the warm front. SPC has outlooked much of the area in a
slight risk for severe thunderstorms today. The threat of severe
storms decreases later this morning into the afternoon as the best
deep layer lift moves east of the area. Dry conditions return
tonight into Tuesday as an upper ridge builds across the region.
Highs today will be in the upper 70s and low 80s. Highs on Tuesday
will be in the low to mid 80s. /13

SHORT TERM...
(Tuesday night through Wednesday night)
Issued at 404 AM CDT Mon Apr 3 2023

Upper level ridging builds into the Southeast allowing winds aloft
to turn southwesterly as a large trough swings across the Plains and
its upper level low lifts across the Upper Midwest. Meanwhile, the
local area remains on the western periphery of a surface high over
the western Atlantic and we maintain southerly surface winds. The
area remains dry as we head into Tuesday night and Wednesday
morning. A cold front slides across the Deep South on Wednesday and
begins to approach our local area overnight Wednesday into early
Thursday.

Deep southerly flow will usher plenty of moisture into the region
throughout the period. Patchy fog will be the primary concern both
nights as dewpoints hover in the low 70s across the southern portion
of the area, especially across the coastal counties. Lows are
expected to be 10-15° above normal both nights with overnight
temperatures struggling to fall any lower than the low 70s. Highs on
Wednesday will jump into the mid to upper 80s yet again as the
weakening cold front remains to our northwest. Expect breezy
conditions on Wednesday as the pressure gradient tightens between
the aforementioned surface features. Showers and a few storms will
approach the western portion of our area throughout the afternoon
and evening hours on Wednesday ahead of the front. Highest chance
for rain remains across southeast Mississippi and far interior
southwest Alabama late Wednesday afternoon through the overnight
hours, but the bulk of the rain will still be off to our northwest
in this timeframe.

Spring Break Note: Rip current risk remains MODERATE through mid-
week with surf heights increasing to 2-4 feet on Wednesday. 07/mb

LONG TERM...
(Thursday through Sunday)
Issued at 404 AM CDT Mon Apr 3 2023

An unsettled pattern sets up late in the week through the weekend.
The upper level ridge gets nudged further to our east as an
expansive trough lifts out of the Plains on its way to the
northeast. Ridging eventually settles back into the Gulf and the
southwesterly flow aloft turns zonal again. A parade of weak, subtle
shortwaves round the periphery of the ridge through the end of the
work week with a more substantial shortwave pivoting into the Deep
South and Southeast late in the weekend.

Down at the surface, ridging over the western Atlantic maintains its
grip over the eastern portion of our area on Thursday and the
approaching cold front begins to lay down and weaken as it moves
into the local area. The front will likely stall somewhere near the
coast or over the Gulf waters Thursday night into Friday in this
pattern. Showers and storms will be ongoing as we roll into Thursday
morning with 30-50% POPs throughout the day as the front slides into
the region. Rain chances on Friday and Saturday will be carbon
copies as we remain in somewhat of a wet pattern with scattered
showers and storms each day. At this point, still not anticipating
much in terms of severe storms as the bulk of the forcing/dynamics
associated with the front are well to our north. Given antecedent
soil conditions, minor nuisance-type flooding looks like more of an
issue in this pattern as we get several rounds of showers and storms
repeatedly moving over the same locations near the front each day. A
weak surface low may develop later in the weekend somewhere along
the central Gulf Coast and may attempt to pull the stalled front
back to the north as a warm front. There remain differences in the
guidance this far out, but that might be a feature to watch in the
coming days - especially with regards to an increased potential
for minor flooding. 07/mb

MARINE...
Issued at 404 AM CDT Mon Apr 3 2023

A light to occasionally moderate onshore flow prevails
through Thursday, then becomes northeasterly Thursday night as a
cold front moves through the area. Fog development is possible late
each night into the early morning hours over the near shore waters
and bays and sounds for much of the period. /13.
