AN ANOMALOUSLY STRONG LONGWAVE TROUGH IS CURRENTLY IN PLACE
ACROSS THE EASTERN HALF OF THE CONUS. AT THE SURFACE, A RATHER
STRONG COLD FRONT (FOR LATE AUGUST STANDARDS) HAS PUSHED THROUGH
MUCH OF THE LOCAL AREA TODAY AND IS CURRENTLY LOCATED ACROSS OUR
COASTAL COUNTIES THIS AFTERNOON. BEHIND THE FRONT, A MUCH DRIER
AIRMASS IS BEGINNING TO FILTER INTO THE AREA FROM THE NORTH. IN
FACT, MANY SITES OVER SOUTHEAST MISSISSIPPI AND INTERIOR SOUTHWEST
ALABAMA ARE ALREADY REPORTING DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOW
60S. GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THAT THIS FRONT MAY BRIEFLY GET HUNG UP
ALONG THE COAST TODAY, BUT SHOULD BEGIN TO PUSH INTO THE NORTHERN
GULF BY LATE TONIGHT/TUESDAY MORNING AS AN EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE
ALOFT ROUNDS THE BASE OF THE LONGWAVE TROUGH. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
THEN BUILD INTO THE AREA, HELPING TO KEEP THE DRY AIR IN PLACE AND
THUS KEEPING RAIN CHANCES AT OR BELOW 10% THROUGH THURSDAY.
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS RETURN TO THE FORECAST FOR FRIDAY AND
INTO NEXT WEEKEND AS DEEP MOISTURE BEGINS TO MOVE BACK INTO THE
AREA AND EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE IMPULSES PUSH INTO THE LOCAL REGION
FROM THE NORTHWEST.
TODAY WILL BE THE HOTTEST DAY OF THE WEEK, WITH HIGHS TOPPING OUT IN
THE LOW TO MID 90S ACROSS THE AREA. HIGHS WILL DECREASE SLIGHTLY TO
THE UPPER 80S TO LOW 90S FOR TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY. ALTHOUGH
STILL QUITE WARM, IT WILL DEFINITELY FEEL MUCH MORE PLEASANT THANKS
TO DEW POINTS IN THE 50S AND 60S. BY FRIDAY AND THE WEEKEND,
INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND CONVECTION WILL HELP TO KEEP HIGHS IN THE
LOW TO MID 80S INLAND TO THE UPPER 80S ALONG THE COAST. LOWS THROUGH
WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE LOW TO MID 60S INLAND TO THE
UPPER 60S TO AROUND 70 ALONG THE COAST. LOWS GRADUALLY INCREASE TO
THE MID TO UPPER 60S INLAND TO LOW 70S ALONG THE COAST BY LATE WEEK
AND INTO THE WEEKEND. A LOW RISK OF RIP CURRENTS CONTINUES THROUGH
THE PERIOD. /96

LIGHT AND RATHER VARIABLE WINDS TODAY WILL BECOME A MODERATE
