.KEY MESSAGES...
Issued at 303 PM CST Sat Nov 7 2026
- A much cooler and drier airmass moves into the area tonight
into early next week. Lows in the 40's can be expected
widespread across the area, to even mid to upper 30's for
inland/northern areas where patchy frost will likely occur.
- Moderate to occasional strong northerly winds over the Gulf
this weekend will create hazardous conditions for small craft.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 147 PM CST Sat Nov 7 2026
As the center of a large 1025 MB surface high pressure system
centered over Missouri migrates southward, we are expecting very
chilly conditions tonight across the region as cold air advection
ramps up after sunset. Low temperatures tonight across interior
portions of southeast Mississippi and southwest Alabama will drop
into the middle to upper 30s (around 6 to 9 degrees below normal).
The combination of mostly clear skies and light winds will lead
to the development of patchy frost, especially in non-protected
and other frost-prone areas. Went ahead and issued a Frost
Advisory from 2 AM to 7 AM Sunday across all of our northern
zones, but our main concern is generally along and north of a line
from Waynesboro MS to Monroeville AL to Luverne AL. Persons
living in this area should take steps now to protect sensitive
outdoor vegetation. Sensitive outdoor plants may be killed if left
uncovered. We are expecting similar low temperatures and frost
formation for Sunday night.
The center of the surface high pressure system will gradually
weaken early next week, but a surface ridge will remain across the
Deep South through midweek. Therefore, the dry weather conditions
will persist through midweek, with high temperatures climbing
back into the middle to upper 70s by Tuesday and Wednesday. We
are still monitoring a strong upper trough forecast to exit
southeast Canada and dig southward across the entire eastern
CONUS. At this time, we are not expected much, if any, significant
rain associated with this system, but there could be enough
moisture return for at least isolated showers mainly on Thursday.
A strong surface cold front associated with this trough will push
well south of the coast and potentially bring even colder low
temperatures by the next weekend compared to this weekend. /22

Issued at 304 PM CST Sat Nov 7 2026
Light to occasional moderate northerly flow will persist through
the reminder of the weekend as surface high pressure builds into
the region with winds shifting northeasterly over the Gulf by
Monday morning. Light offshore flow Monday afternoon through
Tuesday morning will become light and variable through midweek as
the high pressure moves over the Gulf waters. A light to moderate
westerly flow on Thursday will shift to a moderate to strong
northwesterly flow thursday night as the next cold front sweeps
through the region. /22
