900 FXUS64 KMOB 111914 AFDMOB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 214 PM CDT Sat May 11 2024 ...New AVIATION, NEAR TERM... .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 214 PM CDT Sat May 11 2024 VFR conditions will continue for the next 24 hours, although there will be an increase in high level cloudiness. Light northerly surface winds today becoming light and variable tonight before becoming more light northeast to easterly on Sunday. DS/12 && .NEAR TERM... (Now through Sunday) Issued at 214 PM CDT Sat May 11 2024 Slight ridging aloft is expected tonight through Sunday, as surface high pressure also generally persists over the region. A weak front will drop south across the forecast area late tonight into early Sunday, reinforcing the slightly cooler and much drier airmass that is currently in place (at least through Sunday morning). We will likely be seeing an increase in mid and high levels clouds in the near term period, however. The initial front that moved through on Friday that is now stationary well to our south out over the Gulf of Mexico will slowly begin to lift back north as a warm front by late Sunday. This could bring some late afternoon showers to the southern (mainly coastal) sections of our forecast area by late Sunday afternoon, but rain chances will be very low (less than 20 percent). Temperatures will be around or just below normal for this time of the year. Lows tonight should range from the upper 50s up along the Highway 84 corridor to the low or mid 60s south toward and along the coast. Highs on Sunday will generally be in the lower 80s across the entire area. Along with the slightly lower temperatures we will also be looking at dewpoints in the 50s through the near term, so humidity levels will feel somewhat tolerable for this time of the year, both tonight and Sunday.
