KEY MESSAGES

- Patchy fog potentially developing early this morning, mainly inland. - Slightly cooler conditions coming over the weekend and into next week following a weak cold front.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 217 AM EST Fri Nov 6 2026

Much like yesterday, the day will start out with some patchy fog, mainly along the interior and typical troublesome areas. The fog will lift by mid morning. A weak, mostly dry cold front will push through later tonight into Saturday. Followed by slightly drier and cooler air filtering in as high pressure builds over the region. High temperatures will run slightly below average as the week begins and lows temperatures will likely drop into the low 50s to the north to low 60s in the south.

By mid week the models are beginning to agree on a second front moving through the area. Enough moisture out ahead of this front should allow for the development of a few showers. The mid week front will reinforce the slightly cooler temperatures allowing them to stick around through the end of the week.

AVIATION

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 217 AM EST Fri Nov 6 2026

Mainly VFR conditions prevail. However, early morning fog could develop leading to periods of MVFR/IFR visibilities. LAL will have the highest chance of impact as fog will likely develop in the interior. Fog is expected to lift by mid morning with VFR conditions returning.

MARINE

Issued at 217 AM EST Fri Nov 6 2026

Mostly benign marine conditions persist. A weak cold front will push through late tonight into Saturday. Winds will shift more northerly as the front moves through. At the start of the week winds shift more ENE and increase slightly to around 10-15 kts.

FIRE WEATHER

Issued at 217 AM EST Fri Nov 6 2026

A cold front will move through later tonight into tomorrow, bringing slightly drier air behind it. RH values are expected to remain above critical values.
