587 FXUS64 KMOB 101815 AFDMOB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL 115 PM CDT Sat Aug 10 2024 ...New AVIATION, NEAR TERM... .AVIATION... (18Z TAFS) Issued at 115 PM CDT Sat Aug 10 2024 General VFR conditions expected through the forecast. Isolated SHRA/TSRA possible over the Florida panhandle between 18z and 00z. Local drops to mid MVFR levels possible. Light northwest to northerly winds expected through the forecast. /16 && .NEAR TERM... (Now through Sunday) Issued at 115 PM CDT Sat Aug 10 2024 A surface boundary will remain stalled over the forecast area, south of I-65, with a dry airmass over the forecast area becoming even drier tonight into Sunday. Precipitable h20 values drop to 1.5" or less over most of the forecast area into Sunday(a bit higher along the coast). For today, enough moisture is in place closer to the coast this afternoon, combined with a seabreeze moving inland, for a few showers and thunderstorms to develop mainly over the Florida panhandle. Am not expecting any showers or thunderstorms for Sunday, with best chance being over the open Gulf. An upper ridge building east over the Southeast will help keep daytime temperatures at or above seasonal norms for today and Sunday. Temperatures topping out in the low 90s north of Highway 84 and along the coast mid to upper 90s between are expected today and Sunday. Have left today`s Heat Advisory in place for the Florida Panhandle, but am not planning on issuing another for Sunday, with heat indices topping out in the 100-106 degree range. Tonight, with the drier air moving south across the area, temperatures closer to seasonal norms are expected. Temperatures bottoming out in the upper 60s expected north of Highway 84, around 70 to low 70s south to I-10 with upper 70s to near 80 south of I-10 to the coast. /16 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
