Synopsis for pascagoula to atchafalaya river out 60 nm -
surface high pressure centered northeast of the local area will slowly shift from the carolinas to the western atlantic from now to early next week. This will keep onshore flow in place with a gradual shift in wind direction from southeast to south. The pressure gradient will generally support wind speeds around 10 knots with occasional periods of speeds closer to 15 knots.

NEAR TERM...
(Now through Wednesday)
Issued at 516 AM CDT Tue May 21 2024

Upper level ridging will build over the area through Wednesday.
The subsidence beneath the ridge will maintain a dry pattern with mostly clear skies and above normal warmth. High pressure over the western Atlantic will maintain a light southeasterly flow.
Temperatures will remain above normal with highs in the upper 80s to around 90 inland and low to mid 80s near the coast. Lows tonight will be in the low/mid 60s inland to around 70 near the coast. /13

LONG TERM...
(Wednesday night through Monday)
Issued at 516 AM CDT Tue May 21 2024

Dry and warm will be the predominant forecast through the holiday weekend.

Mid and upper level ridging begins to dampen out as we roll into Thursday as a series of shortwaves slides around the periphery of the ridge. Flow aloft turns zonal through the first half of the weekend as shortwaves pivot across the region. Meanwhile, a surface high over the western Atlantic maintains a firm grip over parts of the Southeast and eastern Gulf through Saturday. The influence of deep layer ridging should keep rain chances minimal through the weekend with only a 15-20% POP in the afternoon and early evening generally north of the Highway 84 corridor (further away from the influence of the ridging) Friday through Sunday.

A more potent shortwave dives across the Plains early next week and may bring the next substantial chance for showers and storms beyond Monday. While we stuck to the blended guidance on Days 7 and 8, the best chance for showers and storms likely won't develop until Day 8 (Tuesday).

Heat indices soar up to 100°F over the holiday weekend with daytime high temperatures rising into the mid to low 90s across inland communities (upper 80s at the beaches). Overnight lows only fall into the 70s this weekend.

Beach Note: Rip current risk remains LOW through Saturday with the RCMOS probabilities remaining LOW through at least Sunday.
Probabilities do begin to increase toward the MODERATE category by the afternoon hours on Memorial Day. 07/mb

No impacts expected other than locally higher winds and waves near the coast due to the afternoon seabreeze. /13
