Issued at 135pm CDT Thu Oct 8 2026

Our period of unsettled weather and mostly beneficial rainfall has finally come to an end along the immediate coast, with only brief isolated showers developing from northeast to southwest across portions of the region expected through tomorrow afternoon. As moisture content continues to drop and subsidence builds, we should continue to see generally rain-free conditions through next week. The exception will be if any isolated sea breeze activity develops, but chances remain fairly low each day. Otherwise, expect seasonable temperatures in the low to mid 90s each afternoon. Lower humidity will keep heat indices in the 90s through the weekend, but as the humidity becomes elevated, we may start to see triple-digit heat indices by early next week.

For the Columbus Day holiday weekend, our attention will turn to the hazardous beach and marine conditions expected as Hurricane Isaias continues its course across the Gulf waters towards the northern Gulf coast. Increasing swell will bring hazardous beach conditions, including life-threatening rip currents, high surf, and coastal flooding. Tidal runup is likely along the beach, especially around periods of high tide… and runup will likely reach the dunes along narrower beaches. Coastal Flood Advisories, High Surf Advisories, and/or High Risk of Rip Current Statements are likely as early as tomorrow and continuing through much of the weekend.

Adverse to hazardous marine conditions will likely continue into the weekend as seas build in response to Hurricane Isaias as it travels north/northeast across the Gulf. This will result in Small Craft Advisories for portions of or all of the Gulf waters as seas increase upwards of 5-7 feet late this week and over the weekend. Conditions should begin to improve by late this weekend and early next week. Otherwise, isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms cannot be ruled out through the end of the week, before decreasing this weekend.
