280 FXUS64 KMOB 250001 AFDMOB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 701 PM CDT Sun Aug 24 2025 ...New Aviation... .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1251 PM CDT Sun Aug 24 2025 An anomalously strong longwave trough is currently beginning to dig into the Great Lakes region. Over the next few days, this trough will amplify further, allowing for its base to dig into the Deep South. As this occurs, this will help to send a rather strong cold front (for late August standards) southward. Although there are still some timing and strength uncertainties with this front between the various model guidance, the consensus suggests that the front will move into our northern counties by early tomorrow morning, and will push into the northern Gulf on Tuesday. In the wake of the front, a much drier airmass will begin to filter into the area from the north (dew points midweek will crater into the 50s across much of the area). Little to no rain is expected across the area Monday through Thursday. Isolated to scattered showers and storms return to the forecast for Friday and into next weekend as embedded shortwave impulses push into the local region from the northwest. Highs for today and tomorrow will top out in the low to mid 90s across the area. After the front pushes through the area, highs will decrease into the mid to upper 80s, to around 90. Although still quite warm, it will definitely feel much more pleasant thanks to dew points in the 50s. Lows by midweek will be noticably cooler after the front passes. Lows ranging from the upper 60s north to the mid 70s along the coast tonight will drop into the low 60s inland to the upper 60s along the coast by Wednesday night. Lows slowly moderate back into the mid to upper 60s inland to the low 70s along the coast by next weekend. A Low Risk of rip currents continues through the period. /96 && .AVIATION... (06Z TAFS) Issued at 700 PM CDT Sun Aug 24 2025 VFR conditions will prevail through the next 24 hours. /13 && .MARINE... Issued at 1251 PM CDT Sun Aug 24 2025 A light to occasionally moderate diurnal pattern will continue through Monday, with offshore expected at night, followed by onshore flow during the afternoon. Moderate northeasterly winds develop on Tuesday and will linger through the end of the week as a cold front moves across the area. Exercise Caution headlines may become necessary for our local Gulf waters Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. /96 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
