| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Mobile AL Issued by National Weather Service New Orleans LA 1212pm CDT Monday Oct 5 2026 Issued at 1208pm CDT Monday Oct 5 2026 Recent radar mosaic and observation trends illustrate most of the rain has exited the area, as the lead trough departs to our east and de-amplifies with time. Some residual PVA will remain across the northern Gulf, where continued light showers will remain possible. Meanwhile at the surface weak northerly flow has entered the area, relatively deep between the surface to 750mb level, with the main H5 trough still lagging slightly to our north which will continue to pump clouds overtop this layer today. Otherwise, quiet the rest of today thru mid-week. Occasionally breezy at times and not as hot, with highs generally in the mid 80’s, a lot closer to normal for this time of the year, for once. As for the tropics, this is becoming a bigger focus today as models continue to more confidently indicate tropical development potential in the southern Gulf. NHC highligheights a high chance of tropical development over the next 7 days. Remnant troughing/energy diving into the Bay of Campeche, combined with the Campeche Gyre + favorable shear and very warm SSTs to help with initial low genesis/strengthening. Next, eventual strength of the upper-low forecast to dive southeast over the four corners region into southern texas and amplifies in generalized weakness aloft. Speed, position, timing… all matters here. Google Deepmind ensemble guidance continues to indicate meandering eastward initial development, before it gets picked up to the north. Without getting too in the weeds, simply said, with remnant stretch PVA over the northern Gulf, rain and coastal/marine hazards will be an issue. We’ll be able to resolve more details in the coming days, so be sure to check back with official sources this week and stay tuned for updates. KLG ..Beach Forecast A High risk of life-threatening rip currents for all beaches begins Tuesday and will continue into later this week. KLG Marine Issued at 1208pm CDT Monday Oct 5 2026 Outside of gusty winds with thunderstorms, overall light winds and seas of less than 3 feet can be expected today. A cold front will start to push through the waters tonight into Tuesday and winds will increase from the east and northeast to between 15 and 25 knots with the stronger winds out in the open waters. Seas will respond to these winds and increase to 4 to 7 feet creating rough conditions offshore. Due to these conditions, a Small Craft Advisory remains in effect starting 7AM Tuesday through late-week. NOAA Mobile AL Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories AL...None. FL...None. MS...None. GM...Small Craft Advisory from 7am Tuesday to 3am CDT Friday for GMZ650-655-670-675. |
