(18Z TAFS) Issued at 110 PM CDT Tue Sep 17 2024 Isolated to scattered showers and storms this afternoon taper off by early evening, though isolated showers and storms will remain possible near the coast overnight. MVFR to IFR conditions will accompany the stronger showers and storms, and similar conditions are possible late tonight with patchy fog. VFR conditions are otherwise expected.

(Now through Wednesday night) Issued at 110 PM CDT Tue Sep 17 2024 An upper low centered near the Carolinas gradually broadens and evolves into an upper trof over the eastern states through Wednesday night. A weak frontal boundary meanders mainly over the coastal counties through Wednesday before finally moving well offshore Wednesday night. Plenty of deep layer moisture is currently in place over the area although progressively drier air will start to slowly filter into the area from the north this evening. Have continued with chance to good chance pops for much of the area this afternoon with slight chance pops for the coastal counties and extreme southeast Mississippi for early this evening. Dry conditions prevail for the rest of tonight into Wednesday morning, although will leave in small pops near the coast close to the weak frontal boundary. For Wednesday afternoon, have kept slight chance pops in for the coastal counties and much of southeast Mississippi, but otherwise dry conditions are expected through Wednesday night. Lows tonight range from the mid 60s well inland to the lower 70s at the coast, and lows Wednesday night will be similar. Highs on Wednesday will be in the mid to upper 80s. A low risk of rip currents is expected through Wednesday night. /29 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
