Alligator Point FL Weather Forecast Alligator Point Current Weather

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTHEAST ALABAMA...
SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL GEORGIA...AND THE FLORIDA BIG BEND
AND PANHANDLE...AND ADJACENT COASTAL WATERS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT...
NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME. A WEAK AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE ACROSS THE CENTRAL GULF OF MEXICO WILL MOVE TO THE EAST
AND APPROACH THE NORTHEAST GULF. AHEAD OF THIS LOW...A SWATH OF
RAIN AND DRIZZLE WILL OVERSPREAD MAINLY THE EASTERN BIG BEND...
ADJACENT GEORGIA AND THE GULF WATERS. THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER
WITH THIS SYSTEM APPEARS VERY LOW...AND ANY THREAT SHOULD BE OVER
THE OFFSHORE WATERS. WINDS WILL INCREASE TO EXERCISE CAUTION
LEVELS...MAINLY OVER THE EXTREME OFFSHORE WATERS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY...

A PERIOD OF CAUTIONARY...TO LOW END ADVISORY LEVEL WINDS AND SEAS
IS POSSIBLE THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY MORNING. WINDS AND
SEAS SHOULD SUBSIDE LATER FRIDAY INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND AS
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE NORTHEAST GULF OF MEXICO.

A COOLER AIR MASS IS ANTICIPATED TO MOVE ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN
STATES THURSDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY. LOW TEMPERATURES FRIDAY
MORNING ARE FORECAST TO DROP INTO THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 30S
ACROSS PORTION OF THE AREA. AT THIS TIME...TEMPERATURES ARE
EXPECTED TO REMAIN ABOVE FREEZING AND A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT
SHOULD HELP PREVENT THE FORMATION OF FROST. BY SATURDAY
MORNING...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE MUCH CLOSER ALLOWING FOR
LIGHTER WINDS AND BETTER RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS. CURRENTLY
THE LOW TEMPERATURES AWAY FROM THE COAST ARE EXPECTED TO REACH THE
MIDDLE 30S SATURDAY MORNING...HOWEVER WITH THE LIGHT WINDS...EVEN
THESE TEMPERATURES COULD RESULT IN AREAS OF FROST OVER EXPOSED
FIELDS AND NORMALLY COLDER LOW LYING LOCATIONS. THOSE WITH
SENSITIVE OUTDOOR VEGETATION SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST
FORECASTS THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEK IN CASE THE POSSIBILITY OF
FROST OR EVEN SUB FREEZING TEMPERATURES BECOMES MORE LIKELY
SATURDAY MORNING.

GLOBAL MODELS ARE SEEING THE POTENTIAL FOR A RATHER DYNAMIC SYSTEM
TO DIG INTO THE EASTERN HALF OF THE NATION...INCLUDING THE
NORTHERN GULF COAST...DURING MONDAY OR TUESDAY OF NEXT WEEK. KEEP
IN MIND THAT THIS SYSTEM IS STILL IN THE FAR EXTENDED PORTION OF
THE FORECAST PERIOD...AND THE DETAILS OF THE GUIDANCE ARE LIKELY
TO CHANGE BEFORE THEN. HOWEVER...BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS ARE
CURRENTLY SHOWING A PATTERN THAT WOULD RESULT IN AT LEAST A
LIMITED SEVERE WEATHER THREAT TO THE FORECAST AREA. KEEP UP TO
DATE WITH THE LATEST FORECASTS DURING THE UPCOMING WEEK WITH
RESPECT TO THIS POTENTIAL SYSTEM IN CASE ANY SEVERE WEATHER THREAT
BECOMES MORE LIKELY.
