Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mobile AL
1147 AM CST Tue Feb 3 2026

...New AVIATION...

.KEY MESSAGES...
Issued at 1147 AM CST Tue Feb 3 2026

 - Strong winds will likely create hazardous conditions for small
   craft Wednesday afternoon into Thursday, and possibly late in
   the week as well.

 - A Moderate Rip Current Risk will occur mainly Tuesday night
   through Wednesday as southwesterly winds increase over the
   Gulf, and possibly late in the week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1046 PM CST Mon Feb 2 2026

A series of vigorous systems lead to the formation of a large
positively tilted upper trof over the central and eastern CONUS by
Tuesday night which progresses into the eastern half of the CONUS
by Wednesday night. An associated surface low is expected to
bring a cold front through the forecast area late Tuesday night
into Wednesday morning. As the large upper trof moves off into the
western Atlantic going into Saturday, a surface ridge builds into
the forecast area, then a weak reinforcing cold front moves
through the area Friday night. Have continued with likely to
categorical pops shifting across the area Tuesday night into
Wednesday morning, with dry conditions developing in the
afternoon. Instability remains limited with the frontal passage,
with just some embedded storms expected over the marine area and
near the coast. Dry conditions are expected over the area from
Wednesday night all the way through Tuesday, despite the weak
front moving through Friday night, as deep layer moisture looks
too limited to consider pops for an extended period.

Highs on Tuesday will be 65-70, a change from the cool/cold
temperatures of the past week or so. Highs Wednesday into Thursday
trend to around 50, then trend warmer to the upper 60s/lower 70s
by Sunday with similar values continuing into Tuesday. Lows
Tuesday night range from the 40s to mid 50s then lows Wednesday
night and Thursday night will be mainly in the upper 20s to lower
30s. Overnight lows moderate Friday night into Monday night, by
which time lows range from the mid 40s to around 50. A low risk of
rip currents Tuesday will be followed by a moderate risk Tuesday
night and Wednesday. A low risk of rip currents is expected
Wednesday night for Alabama beaches, though a moderate risk
continues for the western Florida panhandle beaches. A low risk of
rip currents follows for Thursday, then for Friday a low risk of
rip currents for Alabama beaches continues, although the western
Florida panhandle beaches will have a moderate risk. /29

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1147 AM CST Tue Feb 3 2026

VFR flight category will prevail over the region into the early
evening hours. Numerous to widespread showers will enter into
interior southeast Mississippi and interior southwestern Alabama
this evening and spread eastward to the I-65 corridor by late
tonight. This precipitation will then move east of I-65 Wednesday
morning. The heaviest showers could potentially bring reduced
ceilings and visibility down into the IFR/MVFR levels. Winds will
