DISCUSSION

Issued at 1153 PM CST Sun Dec 7 2025

The last round of rain is finally making its way across our area at this hour ahead of the front. The light to moderate rain showers will scour out the lingering fog that settled into the Alabama coastal waters, bays, and sounds (as well as right along the beaches/coastline). The potent cold front will continue to swing across our area over the next few hours and should be east of the area by sunrise.

Much drier and cooler air can be expected in the wake of the cold front. It will be gusty at times this afternoon as the pressure gradient tightens overhead between the exiting front and incoming surface high. Daytime temperatures will struggle to get into the low to mid 50s today behind the front. Temperatures tonight will take a nose dive after sunset and will bottom out in the upper 20s to low 30s inland with upper 30s at the beaches by sunrise on Tuesday. Interior counties in south Alabama and south Mississippi can expect around 5 hours of below freezing temperatures in the early Tuesday morning hours.

Wednesday and Thursday will be dry and mild. Another cold front will sweep across the area late in the week or early in the weekend with the potential for another round of chilly temperatures.

Beach Forecast - Rip current risk remains LOW through Saturday in the current pattern. 07/mb
