OVER OUR REGION OVER THE WEEKEND, FOLLOWED BY A STRONGER MEDIUM

NORTHERN GULF THROUGH NEXT WEEK. A SURFACE FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS

THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING DURING THE MORNING OVER OUR MARINE ZONES
AND ALONG THE COAST, AND THEN SPREAD INLAND THROUGHOUT THE DAY
WITH SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
BY EARLY AFTERNOON. SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL THEN LINGER THROUGH AT
LEAST MID-EVENING BEFORE DISSIPATING. WE CAN'T RULE OUT A FEW
STRONG STORMS WITH GUSTY WINDS, FREQUENT LIGHTNING, AS WELL AS
VERY HEAVY RAINFALL.
WITH THE STRONGER MEDIUM AMPLIFIED UPPER TROUGH OVER OUR AREA
EARLY NEXT WEEK, WE EXPECT SOME COOLER TEMPERATURES. HIGHS ARE
EXPECTED TO DROP INTO THE LOW/MID 80S NORTHEAST OF A BUTLER TO
CRESTVIEW LINE MONDAY AND TUESDAY, WITH UPPER 80S TO AROUND 90
DEGREES ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST AREA. A LOW RISK OF
