Now Through Saturday Night...

An upper level shortwave trough moves southeast through zonal flow
over the Southeast Saturday, passing northeast of the forecast area.
A surface ridge stretching west over the northern Gulf coast becomes
more organized, with Gulf moisture working its way inland. Moisture
levels over the forecast and nearby rise into the 1.6"-1.9" range by
Saturday afternoon. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms
are expected to develop, though with the upper dynamics passing well
inland, there is little to help convection. An inland moving
seabreeze in the afternoon is basically the only boundary. Model
soundings show MLCapes rising into the 2000-2500J/kg range, with
DCapes in the 700-1000J/kg range Saturday afternoon, with light,
deep layer winds keeping Bulk Wind shear values around 20kts or
less. All in all, a few may become strong to marginally severe, but
organized severe storms are not expected.

Temperatures are a broken record, especially high temperatures.
Inland from the coast, upper 80s to around 90 are expected this
afternoon and again Saturday, with mid to upper 80s along the coast.
Heat Indices rising into the 95-100 degree range are expected over
most of the forecast area Saturday. Low temperatures in the upper
60s to low 70s well inland, mid 70s along the coast tonight see an
uptick to around 70 to low 70s well inland, mid to upper 70s along
the coast are expected Saturday night.

A Low Risk of Rip Currents is expected into Sunday. /16

Sunday Through Thursday...

The pattern turns more unsettled as we head toward Memorial Day and
the early to middle part of next week.

We transition out of the northwesterly flow aloft and into a
southwesterly (at times zonal flow) aloft through much of the week
as weak ridging remains a persistent feature to our south. Numerous
subtle shortwaves pivot through the flow aloft, occasionally diving
into or near the local area. Timing out these subtle shortwaves is
difficult at this time range, so you may see jumps in the rain
chances with each forecast update until we gain a better handle on
the timing. Expect more of a typical summertime diurnal pattern with
the storms next week with the highest chances for rain in the
afternoon and early evening hours. Highest rainfall totals still
look to be in the 2-3 inch range throughout this timeframe for areas
generally northwest of the I-65 corridor, across parts of southeast
Mississippi and southwest Alabama.

Beach Forecast - Rip current risk remains LOW through the holiday.
Our rip current MOS probabilities indicate that the risk may briefly
increase Monday night into Tuesday, but fall back to a LOW risk by
the middle of the week. 07/mb
