038 FXUS64 KMOB 041750 AFDMOB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 1250 PM CDT Thu Sep 4 2025 ...New Discussion, Marine... .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1225 PM CDT Thu Sep 4 2025 Nobody move or we might scare the nice weather away. The benign dry weather shall continue until we say otherwise and that appears to be at least through next week. A rather impressive upper trough for early September will remain in place across the eastern CONUS. While this upper trough will likely break down some tomorrow and Saturday, a re- enforcing shortwave will help bring drier air back to the area Sunday into Monday. Given current guidance this could be some of the driest air we have seen as dewpoints might crater into the low 50s to upper 40s across interior portions of the area. Unfortunately, the coast may stay a little more moist as a stalled frontal boundary will be lingering just offshore and how far south this boundary makes it will dictate how dry the coast gets. Further offshore the front goes the drier everyone will be. If the front hangs up along the coastline, then some scattered showers and storms may begin to pop up by midweek. Other than that the only concern may be for some fire weather with such dry conditions. Given we have a few days to watch trends, I went rather conservative with the dewpoints but could easily see dewpoints next week in the 40s leading to relative humidity values in the 20 to 30% (Normally we are around 60-70%). This coupled with the fairly dry couple of weeks may allow for some burning concerns to arise. Other than that expect temperatures mainly to be in the upper 80s to low 90s and lows to remain in the low to mid 60s through most of the forecast. && .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 1218 PM CDT Thu Sep 4 2025 VFR flight category prevails across the region through Friday. Winds remain light out of the southwest at around 5 knots today, becoming southerly around 5 to 10 knots Friday. Light and variable winds can be expected overnight tonight. MM/25 && .MARINE... Issued at 1225 PM CDT Thu Sep 4 2025 A mostly light diurnal flow will continue through Saturday with an onshore flow developing in the afternoon then becoming offshore at night. A northerly flow follows for Sunday and strengthens Sunday night before diminishing on Monday. A moderate to occasionally strong northeasterly flow develops Monday night then diminishes somewhat on Tuesday as it becomes easterly. Will likely need to monitor the Monday through Tuesday timeframe for small craft advisory conditions and small craft will likely need to exercise caution during that time.
