516 FXUS64 KMOB 301124 AFDMOB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 624 AM CDT Sat Aug 30 2025 ...New Aviation... .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1229 AM CDT Sat Aug 30 2025 The soggy weekend will continue today with storms already developing along the coast. A rather broad upper trough will persist over the eastern US through the weekend slowly pushing a surface cold front through the area. Several shortwave troughs are expected to progress through the northwesterly flow leading to several rounds of thunderstorms along the slowly sagging surface boundary. PWATS will be hanging around 2 inches throughout the period giving plenty of moisture available for widespread storms. Expect numerous to widespread thunderstorms mainly along the coast today with slightly lower coverage on Sunday as the boundary slowly slips south. With slow storm motions and PWATS above 2 inches, localized heavy rainfall will be possible across the poor drainage areas along the immediate coastline. By the middle of next week, drier air should be able to finally push south enough to dry things out temporarily. Unfortunately the front will likely not get too far offshore leading to rain chances still lingering around the coastal areas. The one good thing with the active pattern is a continued period of cooler temperatures with mostly highs in the 80s through most of the week. The increased moisture will certainly keep things a little muggier than the past week but for early September standards we will certainly take highs in the 80s and lows in the mid to upper 60s. Once the drier air moves in midweek, we will likely see those low temperatures drop back off into the low to mid 60s. BB/8 && .AVIATION...
