.SHORT TERM AND LONG TERM...
(This Evening through next Tuesday)
Issued at 200 PM EST Wed Nov 12 2025

The cold snap is over until further notice! We can expect
temperatures tonight to range from the low 40s inland, to around
50 degrees along the Emerald Coast. Dry conditions will continue
to prevail but the dry air will begin to moisten this evening.
This will allow for the potential for patchy fog to develop,
particularly in the FL and AL wiregrass regions tonight.

A warming trend can be expected through the rest of this week
with afternoon temperatures warming into the mid and upper 70s,
with highs around 80 degrees by the end of this weekend, and low
80s into the start of the work week. Overnight lows will remain in
the mid- 40s, warming to around 50 by this weekend and mid-50s
for the start of the work week. A backdoor cold front attempts to
approach the region on Friday, however it will wash out before
there is much impact for us. Only expectations are a decrease in
dew point temperatures through Saturday but, the actual temps
won`t be affected much.

Near the end of the Long Term, a weak shortwave trough approaches
the Southeast U.S. which could bring a slight chance for showers.
However the global models are not in agreement, indicating low
confidence. PoPs for Tuesday are less than 10% for our SE Alabama
counties and eastern FL Panhandle counties.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 640 PM EST Wed Nov 12 2025

VFR conditions are anticipated much of the TAF period with a
light westerly wind becoming more northwesterly Thursday,
except for a brief seabreeze at ECP. Some fog is possible in
and around KECP and KDHN, with higher confidence at DHN
where we`ve dropped vsby a bit with this forecast issuance.

.MARINE...
Issued at 200 PM EST Wed Nov 12 2025

High pressure will dominate across the Gulf coast and northern
Gulf waters through this upcoming weekend. This will lead to
favorable marine conditions featuring light west/southwest winds
today becoming north to northeast Thursday into Saturday with low
seas through the weekend.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 200 PM EST Wed Nov 12 2025

Moisture return during the week will lead to lowered fire weather
concerns. Transport winds today will be light and
westerly/northwesterly and will generally become northerly for the
rest of week, before clocking around to southerly/southwesterly
by the weekend. Afternoon dispersions for Thursday will be fair to
moderate for most locations. Although it may be poor along the
immediate coast. Poor dispersions are expected on Friday, with low
values along the immediate coast and pockets of low dispersions
throughout our inland districts. MinRH drops again on Friday due
to the passage of a weak backdoor cold front, bringing humidity
values down to the mid and upper 20s for our Georgia districts.
Winds will remain light however, due to the antecedent dry
conditions, elevated fire danger may return for Friday afternoon
in the region. More fair to moderate dispersions return for
Saturday, area-wide. Patchy fog may develop across all districts
each morning as humidity values increase.

Issued at 200 PM EST Wed Nov 12 2025
