.UPDATE...
Issued at 907 PM EST Fri Feb 20 2026
No updates made to the forecast this evening. Patchy to areas of
fog are still possible overnight, mostly across the immediate
coastline and across our Apalachee Bay Waters where sea-surface
temperatures are coldest.
&&
.SHORT TERM...
(This Evening through Saturday night)
Issued at 314 PM EST Fri Feb 20 2026
Scattered showers are expected to continue through this evening.
Fog, at times dense, and low stratus will be possible again tonight
as high pressure over the western Atlantic continues to pump warm
moist air across the region. As it passes over the cooler shelf
waters of the NE Gulf fog forms, first over our marine areas then
advecting inland throughout the overnight hours.
Tomorrow, a shortwave moves across the eastern US pushing a cold
front through the region. The best moisture return across our area
will be through SE Alabama, the FL Panhandle and SW Georgia where an
axis of PWAT around 1.50-1.75 inches will be present Saturday
afternoon. A low level wind field around 20-30 kts will also be
present. This is expected to lead to scattered to widespread showers
and storms. However, hodographs remain mostly unidirectional,
leading to concerns centering more around a wind and low-end hail
threat. The SPC has outlined this aforementioned area within a
marginal risk for severe weather (level 1 of 5). The front is
expected to be out of the region by Sunday morning.
Expect one more warm day with overnight lows in the 60s with daytime
highs generally in the upper 70s to low 80s.
&&
.LONG TERM...
(Sunday through next Thursday)
Issued at 314 PM EST Fri Feb 20 2026
Post-frontal, we'll see cool to cold dry air sweep across the region
through midweek, beginning to warm back up on Thursday. Fairly dry
and benign conditions are expected to persist until Thursday when
our next potential cold front looks to approach the region from the
west.
Behind Saturday into Sunday's cold front we'll see a quick cold snap
dip our overnight lows into the 30s Sunday night and Tuesday night
with our chilliest night being Monday night, with temps dipping into
the mid to upper 20s. Limiting exposure these mornings with adequate
shelter will be important to preventing hypothermia. Similarly,
daytime highs dip into the 50s Monday and Tuesday before warming
back up into the 60s and 70s Wednesday and Thursday.
&&
.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 907 PM EST Fri Feb 20 2026
Fog will become a concern again tonight into tomorrow morning for
our southern terminals (ECP, TLH, & VLD). IFR to LIFR vsbys are
possible along with low cigs through the mid-morning hours
Saturday. During the day, scattered showers will be passing
through the region as the fog gradually lifts. Cigs will mainly
remain in IFR, improving to MVFR by the end of this TAF period.
Breezy and gusty southwesterly flow expected at TAF sites with
occasional 20 to 25 knot gusts forecast.
&&
.MARINE...
Issued at 314 PM EST Fri Feb 20 2026
Southerly flow across the waters through Saturday with seas of 3 to
4 feet just offshore. Areas of sea fog during the overnight into the
morning hours may be dense, especially over the cooler shelf waters
of Apalachee Bay. Any sea fog disperses with a strong cold frontal
passage Saturday night into Sunday morning. A Gale Watch is
currently in effect for early Sunday morning through Sunday evening
for frequent wind gusts over 34 knots. Conditions may warrant
extending the Gale Watch into Monday. Seas offshore peak around 8 to
10 feet on Sunday night. More tranquil boating conditions are
expected to return by Tuesday night.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 314 PM EST Fri Feb 20 2026
Wetting rains across the FL Panhandle and SW Georgia are expected to
continue this afternoon becoming more widespread on Saturday, before
a strong cold frontal passage ushers in a dry air mass from Sunday
into early next week. Scattered thunderstorms on Saturday may
produce gusty and erratic winds. Lower mixing heights along the
Coastline on Saturday will contribute to borderline low dispersions.
On Sunday, strong northwest transport winds lead to high
dispersions. The combination of gusty northwest winds and dry air
mass may lead to elevated fire weather concerns Sunday and Monday.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 314 PM EST Fri Feb 20 2026
There are no flooding concerns over the next week. Drought
conditions are expected to persist and/or worsen across the region.
