A STRONG SURFACE RIDGE WILL PERSIST ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST STATES,
KEEPING OUR EASTERLY WINDS ELEVATED, ESPECIALLY FOR OUR COASTAL
COMMUNITIES. THESE WINDS WILL THEN DECREASE SUNDAY NIGHT AND
MONDAY AS THE RIDGE WEAKENS. DRY CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH
NOON SATURDAY ASIDE FROM ISOLATED LIGHT SHOWERS POPPING UP ALONG
COASTAL ALABAMA. BETTER RAIN CHANCES WILL OCCUR OVER THE WEEKEND
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS A SERIES OF LOW-LEVEL EASTERLY WAVES MOVE
ACROSS THE NORTHERN GULF. WE ARE STILL EXPECTING ISOLATED TO
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS SOUTH OF U.S. HIGHWAY 84 FROM
SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH NOON SUNDAY. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL FOLLOW SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH MIDWEEK
ACROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH THE HIGHEST RAIN CHANCES
OCCURRING CLOSER TO THE COAST, AND WE COULD SEE NUMEROUS SHOWERS
AND STORMS ON SUNDAY ACROSS OUR COASTAL COMMUNITIES. WE ARE STILL
EXPECTING THE BULK OF THE HEAVY RAIN TO REMAIN OUT OVER THE GULF.
HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 80S FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY
WILL REBOUND INTO THE MIDDLE 80S ALL AREAS ON TUESDAY, AND FROM 85
TO 90 DEGREES MIDWEEK. LOW TEMPERATURE TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY
NIGHT WILL BE IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S INLAND, AND THE UPPER 60S
TO LOWER 70S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST. LOWS SHOULD THEN REBOUND
INTO THE MIDDLE 60S TO LOWER 70S SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST.
BEACH FORECAST: WE CONTINUE TO SEE AN UPWARD TREND IN BREAKER
HEIGHTS REACHING THE 5 TO 6 FOOT RANGE BEGINNING LATE TONIGHT.
THEREFORE, WE WENT AHEAD AND ISSUED A HIGH SURF ADVISORY FROM 3 AM
TONIGHT TO 6 PM SUNDAY. THE HIGHER BREAKER HEIGHTS, ALONG WITH
THE HIGH RIP CURRENT RISK, WILL RESULT IN DANGEROUS SWIMMING AND
SURFING CONDITIONS ALONG OUR BEACHES THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.
