(Rest of tonight and Monday)
Issued at 1053 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
An uneventful night so far across the Tennessee Valley as current
satellite shows mostly clear skies and the radar is clear of any
rain. High pressure has helped keep drier air in place and the
shower activity mentioned earlier in the day remained confined to
the higher terrain areas to our east. The main impact tonight will
be the potential for patchy fog, especially in and around river
valleys. Overnight lows will be a few degrees warmer tonight,
falling to the low to mid 60s.
We will maintain a dry forecast on Monday as high pressure
continues to be the dominating factor here locally while Tropical
Storm Imelda continues to draw closer to the Carolinas. This will
increase rain chances closer to the Atlantic coast but the recent
eastward trends in the track favor a drier forecast for us here
locally. Highs in the mid to upper 80s with mostly sunny skies and
light northeast winds will persist through the day tomorrow.

(Monday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 1053 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
Upper ridging will become more amplified in the short term period
as the tropical systems begin their sharp turn east and large
scale subsidence sinks south over the eastern CONUS. This will
result in near seasonable highs in the low/mid 80s and lows in the
low to mid 60s. There is a very low chance (less than 20%) a
stray shower or two could wander over eastern AL Tuesday afternoon
as Imelda pivots east, but the majority of the area should remain
dry with mostly sunny to occasionally partly cloudy skies
depending on how far west the outer bands of Imelda track.

(Wednesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 1053 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
There will be little chance in the overall synoptic pattern as we
head through the long term period. Some good news for those
hoping for cooler temperatures is that with high pressure settling
over the Northeast as we head toward the end of the week, cooler
and drier air will be pushed southwest into the local area. Highs
will drop into the upper 70s in some locations, especially in the
higher terrain areas, with temps in the lower 80s elsewhere. With
the drier airmass in place, we should see abundant sunshine for
the later half of the week and pretty ideal weather for any
outdoor plans. Overnight lows will fall as well, approaching the
lower 50s Thursday and Friday nights. It does not look like we
will hit the 40 degree mark quite yet, but it will feel noticeably
cooler later this week!

(00Z TAFS)
Issued at 609 PM CDT Sun Sep 28 2025
VFR conditions are forecast through the TAF period at both
terminals with light northeast winds and mostly clear skies. Some
patchy fog may develop overnight but confidence is too low to
include in TAFs at this time.
