DISCUSSION

Issued at 1043 PM CDT Thu Sep 24 2026

Dry weather conditions will persist through early next week as Cold Air Damming (CAD) keeps relatively cooler, drier air locked in across the region. Temperatures will remain near or just below normal for most locations today into Saturday for highs and lows. The latter part of the weekend into early next week the CAD begins to erode with a gradual uptick in highs, but near to slightly below normal lows persisting into Monday night. We'll generally see highs in the lower to middle 80's the next couple days, increasing to upper 80's and lower 90's by early next week. Lows will be coolest Friday night near 60 over the far interior areas and lower to middle 60's elsewhere. Lows warm back up into the middle to upper 60's inland and lower 70's nearer the coast by Tuesday night.

We may see some increase in precipitation chances as we head into the middle of next week as isolated to scattered coverage of showers and storms once again becomes possible. A Moderate risk for rip currents continues for AL and FL panhandle beaches through Friday night, becoming a Low risk as we head into the weekend. MM/25
