...New AVIATION...
.KEY MESSAGES...
Issued at 637 PM EDT Mon Jun 1 2026
- A complex of severe thunderstorms over northern Alabama may
weaken before reaching our northern counties tonight.
- A cold front will bring a threat for severe storms and excessive
rainfall tomorrow with high coverage of showers and
thunderstorms.
- Mostly dry and "cooler" weather is expected following frontal
passage mid week.
- A high risk of rip currents continues at the FL Panhandle
beaches through Tuesday evening. Chances for advisory level
boating conditions has increased for Wednesday and Thursday.
&&
.SHORT TERM...
(This Evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 402 PM EDT Mon Jun 1 2026
Isolated showers and storms will continue to develop along a
stalled frontal boundary where convergence will be enhanced by
the sea breeze. A complex of severe thunderstorms over northern
Alabama will move into an unstable environment over central AL as
indicated by an 18Z KBMX sounding. It is certainly possible that
storms will still be strong to severe as the system will makes
it's way into the TAE area by evening.
A stronger front will approach the region from the north tomorrow.
This front, combined with any outflow boundary from the MCS will
provide plenty of lift within the in situ moist unstable airmass
in place across the region. MU CAPE around 2000 J/kg and
sufficient deep-layer shear could produce marginally severe storms
with both a wind and hail threat. Both SPC and WPC have the area
under a marginal risk for severe storms and excessive rainfall
respectively.
&&
.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through next Sunday)
Issued at 402 PM EDT Mon Jun 1 2026
The front will sweep south of the area by Wednesday providing a
rare June respite from the hot and humid conditions we normally
expect this month for the middle to later part of the week.
&&
.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 637 PM EDT Mon Jun 1 2026
A line of TSRA will be moving in from the NW at TAF issuance,
impacting KDHN and KABY first. These storms have been severe and
will likely produce significant gusts and reduced visibilities at
these terminals. It is unclear how well this line will hold
together at this moment, but there will be possible impacts later
at the remaining terminals as the line moves southward. Otherwise,
a cluster of storms becoming severe is also currently near ECP.
Eventually conditions will improve tonight, with another active
round expected near most terminals tomorrow afternoon.
&&
.MARINE...
Issued at 402 PM EDT Mon Jun 1 2026
Gentle to moderate westerly breezes prevail through Tuesday
evening. Chances for advisory level conditions have increased mid
to late this week following frontal passage when winds increase
out of the east. High chances for showers and thunderstorms will
precede Wednesday's frontal passage with lingering convection
across the offshore waters on Thursday.
&&
.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 402 PM EDT Mon Jun 1 2026
A moist airmass and high rain chances should keep fire concerns
minimal through Tuesday. Scattered to numerous thunderstorms will
pose a frequent lightning, and gusty/erratic wind threat on Tuesday.
Wetting rains are possible are also expected tomorrow when a
reinforcing cold front moves from north to south. Drier air will
arrive following frontal passage for the mid to late week.
High afternoon dispersion indices are forecast over parts of the FL
Big Bend and panhandle Wednesday afternoon and will increase later
in the week.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 402 PM EDT Mon Jun 1 2026
Numerous showers and storms are expected again on Tuesday across the
area, which may produce locally heavy rainfall. Widespread rainfall
totals over the next 2 days will be around 0.5-1.5 inches. But
localized high-end totals (10% chance of exceedance) of 3-5 inches
are possible, which could be enough to cause flash flooding. Flash
flood guidance across the area is 2.5-3.5 inches in 1 hour or about
3 to 4.5 inches in 3 hours.
On the riverine front, both the Shoal and the lower Choctawhatchee
Rivers are in action stage and are cresting. Outside of the Shoal
and lower Choctawhatchee, no other rivers are forecast to reach
action stage over the next 7 days with chances from ensemble members
being less than 30%.
