NEAR TERM AND MARINE UPDATE
(NOW THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 1245 PM CST SAT DEC 3 2022
A WARM AND MOIST SOUTHERLY TO SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL PREVAIL
ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON WELL IN ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT
CURRENTLY MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL MS AND NORTHERN AL.
A WEAK AREA OF ASCENT AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING BOUNDARY AND ALONG
THE ASSOCIATED PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH HAS RESULTED IN THE DEVELOPMENT
OF SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS OVER SOUTHEAST MS AND INTERIOR SOUTHWEST
AL THIS MORNING AND EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS
SHOULD CONTINUE TO DEVELOP SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY THIS EVENING.
THE WARM AND MOIST S/SW FLOW HAS RESULTED IN INCREASED SURFACE
DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S TO NEAR 70 DEGREES ALONG THE IMMEDIATE
COAST. WARM/MOIST ADVECTION WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT
OF AREAS OF DENSE FOG ALONG THE COOLER WATERS OF MOBILE BAY, THE
MISSISSIPPI SOUND, PERDIDO BAY, AND PORTIONS OF THE ADJACENT GULF
OUT TO 20 NM LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THIS EVENING. FOG
SHOULD LIFT FOLLOWING THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT LATE TONIGHT.
WE HAVE ISSUED A DENSE FOG ADVISORY FOR THE ABOVE MENTIONED MARINE
