NEAR TERM
(REST OF TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1010 AM CST MON DEC 22 2025
LOW CLOUDS CONTINUE TO STREAM NORTHWARD THIS MORNING, AS ALLUDED
TO FROM THE DEPARTING MIDNIGHT SHIFT. THIS TREND HAS CONTINUED
THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS, WITH OVC CONDITIONS REPORTED ALL ACROSS
THE CWFA, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF FRANKLIN AND MOORE COUNTIES IN
SOUTHERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE. THIS WILL BE SHORT-LIVED, HOWEVER, AS
EVIDENT ON THE LATEST DAY-CLOUD PHASE RGB SATELLITE IMAGES. TEMPS
ARE TRENDING AS EXPECTED, BUT FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS WERE WARRANTED
TO CURRENT DEWPOINT TEMPS. CONSALL DEWPOINTS WERE ADDED TO THE
FORECAST IN THE SHORT TERM, AS THE NBM HAS BEEN MUCH TOO MOIST IN
RECENT DAYS IN ITS HANDLING OF THE DRY AIR IN PLACE ACROSS OUR
PORTION OF THE SOUTHEAST.
AS THE STRONGER SOUTHERLY FLOW INCREASES THROUGH THE DAY,
SLIGHTLY MORE MOIST CONDITIONS EXIST ALONG THE AL/MS BORDER, AND
AS SUCH, IF ANYWHERE SEES ANY PRECIPITATION TODAY, IT'LL BE THOSE
LOCATIONS. ELSEWHERE EAST OF OUR WESTERN-MOST 3 COUNTIES, VIRGA
WILL LIKELY WIN OUT, WITH DRY CONDITIONS PREVAILING AT THE SFC.
OTHERWISE, TEMPS WILL TOP OUT IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 50S WITH
RATHER MILD CONDITIONS IN PLACE FOR MID/LATE DECEMBER.
SHORT TERM
(TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 1010 AM CST MON DEC 22 2025
TUESDAY WILL NEARLY BE A RINSE-AND-REPEAT FORECAST, WITH THE LOW
CHANCES (15-25%) FOR NW AL AND PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN MIDDLE TN.
CLOUDY CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL ONCE AGAIN, WITH MOST AREAS
REMAINING DRY. SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE DAY,
WHICH WILL LEND TO WARMER HIGH TEMPS TOMORROW TOPPING OUT IN THE
MIDDLE 60S/LOWER 70S.
LONG TERM
(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 1005 PM CST SUN DEC 21 2025
LOWS WILL REMAIN IN THE LOWER TO MID 50S TUESDAY NIGHT WITH SOME
EARLY CLOUD COVER LINGERING. EVEN WARMER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED ON
CHRISTMAS DAY, AS UPPER LEVEL RIDGING REMAINS OVER THE GULF COAST
STATES INTO NORTHERN ALABAMA. HIGHS BY CHRISTMAS DAY WILL LIKELY
BE IN THE LOWER TO MID 70S, DESPITE SOME CLOUDS AT TIMES.
ANOTHER FRONTAL BOUNDARY MOVES THROUGH THE AREA ON FRIDAY. A FEW
MODELS DO SHOW SOME VERY LIGHT RAIN WITH IT, BUT NOT MUCH.
INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND SOME WEAK COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL DROP
HIGHS A TAD INTO THE MID 60S TO LOWER 70S ON FRIDAY. HOWEVER
TEMPERATURES QUICKLY WARM BEHIND IT INTO THE 70 TO 75 DEGREE RANGE
ON ON SATURDAY.
