833 FXUS64 KMOB 031125 AFDMOB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 525 AM CST Mon Nov 3 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 522 AM CST Mon Nov 3 2025 -A Frost Advisory is in effect for areas well north of Highway 84 later tonight into Monday. -Small craft will need to exercise caution over the offshore marine waters tonight into Monday. -Above seasonable temperatures expected in the coming week. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1114 PM CST Sun Nov 2 2025 Now through Sunday... A closed upper low sweeps east over the Southeast into the coming week, with a piece of shortwave energy swinging around the base of this low, over the Gulf. A reinforcing front moved south of the northern Gulf coast tonight in response, with a drier airmass (and precipitable h20 values around 0.2"-0.3") moving over the forecast area by Monday morning. Patchy frost is a possibility later tonight into Monday morning, mainly well north of Highway 84, and in localities where winds become light. Monday on, upper level high pressure centered over Texas shifts east over the northern Gulf coast, then a bit south over the Gulf proper. Surface high pressure shifts east over the Southeast before stalling into mid week, with northerly flow becoming southerly by the end of the week. The flow is light, so moisture return is slow into Thursday. Onshore flow becomes better organized Thursday night on, increasing moisture levels with an uptick in rain chances Friday into the weekend ahead of another front moving over the Southeast Sunday. Taking a closer look at temperatures, below seasonal temperatures in the 65-70 range expected for Monday. From there, high temperatures rise to a well above seasonal upper 70s to around 80 by Thursday as the upper ridge moves over the northern Gulf coast. Low temperatures in the mid/upper 30s north of Highway 84 to upper 40s south of I-10 Sunday and Monday nights rise into the mid 50s to around 60 by Friday night. Offshore winds into Monday, then light winds will counter-balance an increasing tidal cycle to keep the risk of rip currents low into the middle of the coming week. /16 && .AVIATION...
