.DISCUSSION...
(Saturday through next Friday)
Issued at 1026 PM CST FRI MAR 6 2026

The main story for Saturday will be the cold front moving into the
region with increasing rain and thunderstorm chances through the
day. There`s a low chance for some strong to severe storms with
damaging winds and hail being the primary concerns. The front is
expected to stall just to our northwest Sunday and lift back
northward Monday into Tuesday.

A shortwave is expected to slide through the region Monday, leading
to another round of rain and thunderstorms before our next main
trough sometime Wednesday into Thursday. Guidance has still shown a
decent amount of variability in the timing of this trough, but it
will be the next system to watch for strong to severe storms as we
go through the middle part of next week.

.AVIATION...
(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 451 PM CST FRI MAR 6 2026

Scattered showers and thunderstorms are moving through Central AL
this evening with the main impacts likely staying around TCL, MGM,
and TOI before the storms dissipate later tonight. VFR conditions
expected through around 09-10z before CIGs drop to MVFR and
eventually IFR. Similar to last night, there`s a medium chance of
CIGs dropping to LIFR briefly in the 12-15z range, but confidence
is low right not to include it in the TAFS. CIGs improve after
15z, becoming VFR again after 18z for all sites.

.FIRE WEATHER...

A frontal boundary will push into the region Saturday leading to
increased rain chances with some strong storms Saturday afternoon
across Central AL. High rain chances continue Sunday morning, then
again on Monday as an upper level system moves through. We should
see a break in the rain/storms on Tuesday before another stronger
system moves through towards the middle part of next week.
