AVIATION
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 527 AM CST Wed Feb 19 2025

Rain will move east of the area by mid morning. However, IFR to LIFR ceilings will persist for most of the day. There is some uncertainty on when IFR ceilings may lift to MVFR levels. The consensus of most guidance is for MVFR ceilings to become predominate by 22-00z, with ceilings potentially scattering out by 09-10z tomorrow morning. There is the possibility that IFR ceilings will persist more into tonight, so we will be watching this trend carefully. East to northeast winds this morning will back to north-northwest by this afternoon and become increasingly gusty. Expect sustained winds of 10-15 kt with gusts of 20-25 kt this afternoon through tonight, slightly higher along the immediate coastal areas. 34/JFB

NEAR TERM...
(Now through Thursday night)
Issued at 238 AM CST Wed Feb 19 2025

Wet and cool conditions persist through the rest of this morning becoming dry and bitterly cold as we head into tonight through Thursday night. The surface low responsible for ongoing moderate to locally heavy rainfall over the forecast area will shift east across the northern gulf through the morning hours. In its wake, strong cold advection takes hold and the forecast area quickly dries out with most areas dry by early afternoon. Today will likely feature a case of temperatures falling throughout the morning and afternoon hours, with highs mostly occurring early to mid morning. Expect temperatures to fall into the upper 30's and lower 40's west of the I-65 corridor with upper 40's to lower 50's by the afternoon hours east of the I-65 corridor.

As we head into tonight a strong pressure gradient remains over the area keeping winds elevated through the night. This plus strong cold advection of an arctic airmass will allow for temperatures to drop into the lower to middle 20's inland and upper 20's to lower 30's nearer the coast. Thanks to the stronger winds mentioned above, wind chills will fall to dangerously cold levels overnight tonight through Thursday morning, generally ranging around 10 to 20 degrees, coldest over interior southeastern Mississippi into interior southwestern Alabama. Given this, a Cold Weather Advisory goes into effect for all of the forecast area for late tonight through mid morning Thursday. Thursday highs will struggle to warm only making it into the upper 30's and lower 40's for interior portions of the forecast area and lower to middle 40's elsewhere. Thursday night will be another bitterly cold night in the lower to middle 20's for nearly all locations. This plus some elevated wind through the night will once again bring wind chills areawide into the 10 to 20 degree range, meaning another Cold Weather Advisory will likely be needed.
A Moderate risk of rip currents today becomes a low risk for Thursday. MM/25

SHORT & LONG TERM...
(Friday through Tuesday Friday night)
Issued at 238 AM CST Wed Feb 19 2025

The arctic high, centered over the OH/TN Valleys on Friday, will gradually weaken and shift east through the weekend. This will result in a gradual moderation of temperatures through the weekend. Friday, however, will still be very cold with highs only in the upper 40s/lower 50s. Mid and high level clouds will start to move into the area Friday night and this will likely prevent it from getting as cold as it otherwise would. It will still be cold though with lows in the upper 20s well inland with mid to upper 30s along the coast. Below normal temperatures will continue through the weekend, but it won't be as cold as what we see for this Thursday/Friday.

A series of shortwaves are forecast to move through in WNW-NW flow aloft over the weekend. The timing of the waves and the degree of any moisture return continues to be uncertain. For now, we will maintain small rain chances for Saturday night into Sunday. However, confidence in any rain is very low.

The cold weather will become a distant memory by early next week as southwesterly low level flow develops by Tuesday, allowing highs to warm well into the 70s. 34/JFB

MARINE...
Issued at 238 AM CST Wed Feb 19 2025

Southeasterly to easterly winds this morning become offshore by late morning as a surface low moves east across the northern Gulf. Strong offshore flow will then persist this afternoon into tonight as the low moves east of the area and arctic high pressure builds in from the north. Winds will gradually subside Thursday night through Friday night. A Small craft advisory is in effect for all marine areas. MM/25
