DISCUSSION
Issued at 1116 AM CDT Thu May 14 2026
An eastern states upper trof moves off into the western Atlantic through Friday night. A surface ridge shifts across the forecast region and becomes oriented over the southeastern states on Saturday, with a light onshore surface flow meanwhile becoming established over the forecast area. An upper ridge builds over the eastern half of the CONUS by Sunday as an upper trof advances into the western states. As the upper trof slowly advances into the central states and the upper ridge moves into the western Atlantic, an associated surface low is anticipated to lift well off to the north and eventually bring a weak cold front into central Alabama/Mississippi between Wednesday and Wednesday night. Dry conditions are expected over the forecast area through Sunday, then pops trend to slight chance to chance pops for much of the area by Tuesday, with similar rain chances for Wednesday and Thursday as the weak boundary approaches and likely stalls. A low risk of rip currents is anticipated through Sunday, with a moderate risk for Tuesday. Highs will be in the lower to mid 80s through Saturday then trend to the mid to upper 80s for Monday through Thursday. Lows tonight range from the lower 50s well inland to around 60 at the coast then trend steadily warmer through Monday night to range from the mid 60s well inland to the lower 70s at the coast, with similar values continuing into Thursday night. /29
