SUNNY DAYS & CLEAR NIGHTS AHEAD; WARM TODAY BUT COOLER BY FRIDAY… Mostly sunny and warm conditions are expected across south Alabama and northwest Florida on this Tuesday. High temperatures will again be in the mid- to upper-80s. We’re looking ahead to our first cold front moving through later tonight ahead of another, more powerful cold front slated to move by on Friday into Saturday. Despite warm temperatures yesterday and today, the upcoming weekend will be chilly at times with overnight lows in the upper-40s and near 50 in most spots by Saturday morning. The tropics are generally quiet other than a tropical wave moving west near the Lesser Antilles. Let’s look at a few forecast details.
NO RAIN IN SIGHT… Our weather pattern continues to look increasingly dry for much of October. No rain chances are noted at any point in the next 7-10 days. Climatologically speaking, October is typically our driest month of the year.
30% CHANCE OF TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT… The National Hurricane Center continues to outline a tropical wave as an area of concern in the Atlantic Ocean, located several hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles. NHC suggests this tropical wave has a 30% chance of becoming a tropical storm in the days ahead as it moves westward. Development odds will probably lessen later today as this tropical wave is set to move into an environment soon where development will be less likely to happen. Regardless of if formal development happens, this system will likely never come close to the Gulf of Mexico.
