TEMPERATURES OVER THE NORTHEAST PORTION OF THE AREA ARE NEAR 34 DEGREES WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE LOWER THIRTIES...WHICH IS ALLOWING FOR THE RAIN TO REMAIN LIQUID. THE SURFACE LOW WILL CONTINUE SLOWLY EASTWARD ACROSS THE AREA TODAY...MOVING INTO SOUTHERN GEORGIA OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL SUPPORT LIKELY POPS THIS MORNING OVER THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE AREA...TAPERING OFF DURING THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY. THE QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT RETREATS FURTHER OFFSHORE TONIGHT AS LOW LEVEL RIDGING REBUILDS OVER THE REGION. SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT STILL LOOK DRY TONIGHT AS RIDGING REMAINS OVER THE AREA WITH THE FRONT WELL INTO THE GULF...SO WILL REMOVE MENTION OF PRECIP.

TIMING DIFFERENCES ASIDE...THE GFS AND CANADIAN GEM AGREE ON THE CENTRAL PLAINS SYSTEM ADVANCING AND MOVING ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST STATES. WHERE PRECIPITATION FALLS WITH THIS SYSTEM REMAINS UNCLEAR...BUT WILL NEED TO GO WITH SMALL POPS THROUGH WEDNESDAY FOR NOW UNTIL THIS BECOMES CLEARER...WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE GFS ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE JUST IN. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL OF RESULTING IN WINTRY PRECIPITATION AS WELL OVER THE INLAND COUNTIES...SO WILL NEED TO CONTINUE TO MONITOR. ANOTHER STRONG SURGE OF CANADIAN ENERGY MOVES INTO THE EASTERN STATES...WITH A LONG WAVE TROF EVOLVING AND LEAVING THE SOUTHWEST STATES SYSTEM CUT OFF.

ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE TODAY ALONG THE ALABAMA...NORTHWEST FLORIDA COASTAL COUNTIES AND OVER THE ADJACENT GULF COASTAL WATERS.

AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA COASTAL WATERS WILL CONTINUE MOVING EAST NORTHEAST TODAY. A WARM FRONT EXTENDING EAST OF THE LOW ALONG THE ALABAMA NORTHWEST FLORIDA COAST WILL MOVE SLOWLY INLAND TODAY...THEN A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH AGAIN TONIGHT AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES EAST. THE AIRMASS SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT...ALONG THE COAST AND OFFSHORE...IS UNSTABLE ENOUGH TO SUPPORT STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS. THERE IS ENOUGH WIND SHEAR TO SUPPORT ISOLATED TORNADOES.
