KEY MESSAGES
Updated at 1104 AM CDT Sun Oct 11 2026
- A High Risk of rip currents is in effect through this afternoon, lowering to a Moderate Risk tonight.
- Near record highs in the upper 80s to low 90s are expected this week. With many areas still without power and recovery efforts from Hurricane Isaias ongoing, these temperatures could lead to an increased risk for heat-related illnesses.
DISCUSSION
Issued at 1104 AM CDT Sun Oct 11 2026
Dry conditions are expected through Saturday. Post-Tropical Cyclone Isaias, currently located over Kentucky, lifts off to the northeast and dissipates over West Virginia this evening. A ridge of dry surface high pressure meanwhile builds into the forecast area and gradually becomes oriented along the northern Gulf coast by Thursday. A cold front approaches from the north late in the week and is expected to move through the forecast area late Friday into Friday night and ushers in cooler and drier air. Deep layer moisture looks to remain too limited to support precipitation with the frontal passage. Near record high temperatures are expected Monday through Thursday with highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s, and possibly on Friday as well depending on how quickly the cold front moves through. Lows tonight range from around 60 well inland to the mid 60s at the coast then trend a bit warmer by Thursday night to range from the lower 60s well inland to the upper 60s/around 70 near the coast. In the wake of the cold front, highs on Saturday will be in the lower to mid 70s, and lows trend by Saturday night to the upper 40s well inland ranging to the mid 50s near the coast. A High Risk of rip currents continues through this afternoon, then a moderate risk follows for tonight. A low risk of rip currents is expected for Monday through Thursday. /29
