.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1153 PM CST Sun Dec 7 2025
The last round of rain is finally making its way across our area
at this hour ahead of the front. The light to moderate rain
showers will scour out the lingering fog that settled into the
Alabama coastal waters, bays, and sounds (as well as right along
the beaches/coastline). The potent cold front will continue to
swing across our area over the next few hours and should be east
of the area by sunrise.
Much drier and cooler air can be expected in the wake of the cold
front. It will be gusty at times this afternoon as the pressure
gradient tightens overhead between the exiting front and incoming
surface high. Daytime temperatures will struggle to get into the low
to mid 50s today behind the front. Temperatures tonight will take a
nose dive after sunset and will bottom out in the upper 20s to low
30s inland with upper 30s at the beaches by sunrise on Tuesday.
Interior counties in south Alabama and south Mississippi can expect
around 5 hours of below freezing temperatures in the early Tuesday
morning hours.
Wednesday and Thursday will be dry and mild. Another cold front will
sweep across the area late in the week or early in the weekend with
the potential for another round of chilly temperatures.
Beach Forecast - Rip current risk remains LOW through Saturday in
the current pattern. 07/mb

LIFR ceilings will continue through the pre-dawn hours with
visibilities slowly improving as the band of rain moves across the
area. Light winds will shift northerly and increase behind the
front early this morning, which will lead to ceilings rising to
IFR/MVFR levels in the late morning and afternoon hours. Gusts up
to 20 kts are possible this afternoon. 07/mb

.MARINE...
Issued at 1153 PM CST Sun Dec 7 2025
