KEY MESSAGES

Issued at 532 PM CST Sun Mar 1 2026

- Above normal temperatures will continue through much of the week.

- Fog, potentially dense in areas, is expected again tonight into Monday morning especially across far southeast Mississippi, coastal Alabama, far south central Alabama, and interior portions of the western Florida Panhandle.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 1249 PM CST Sun Mar 1 2026

An upper level ridge will build across the area through the middle of the week. Light winds, clear skies and surface cooling will allow for another round of patchy dense fog late tonight. Strong subsidence under the ridge and a dry atmosphere will keep conditions dry through midweek. Increasing upper heights will maintain above normal temps as highs warm into the lower and middle 80s by the end of the week. Lows will be in the upper 40s to lower 50s tonight before returning back to middle 50s to lower 60s mid to late week. Rain chances begin to increase during the latter half of the week as the upper ridge weakens and shifts south and a front approaches from the west. The rip current risk will increase to high by Tuesday as southwesterly flow increases and leads to builds swell and surf. The high risk of rip currents continues through much of the week. /13
