KEY MESSAGES
Issued at 1109 AM CST Fri Nov 6 2026
- A much cooler and drier airmass moves into the area this weekend 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 be possible.
- Moderate to occasional strong northerly winds over the Gulf Friday night into the weekend will create hazardous conditions for small craft.
DISCUSSION
Issued at 1010 PM CST Thu Nov 5 2026
The stalled front over eastern parts of the area will finally move east Friday morning as a strong shortwave moves across the Ohio Valley and strong high pressure builds southward into the area.
Areas of dense fog will be possible across areas east of I-65 tonight until the front clears the area. A much cooler and drier airmass will move into the area for the weekend into early next week. This will allow low temperatures to drop mainly into the 40s area-wide both Saturday and Sunday nights, but mid to upper 30s are forecast for inland/northern areas where patchy frost will be possible. Dry weather conditions will persist through the remainder of the forecast. /13
