Looks like this front is shaping up to be the first "real" fall front of the season🍂 The front is expected to pass over our region on Friday, bringing cooler, drier, and breezier weather. Hazardous marine conditions are likely with this frontal passage. Mariners, stay safe!

Impressive
We haven't had any hurricanes to track in 2026, so the new A.I. weather models (ECMWF AIFS, Google Deep Mind) have not been able to show off their skill. Amazing results so far with Isaias. 48-hour forecasts verifying at 18z

10-7-26 445pm The difference in our legacy dynamic physics based models average and the Google Deepmind average with the NHC forecast track. Notice NHC is closer to the AI guidance on track and nearly identical with timing. #isaias #hurricane #Flwx

Additional slight eastward shifts are likely with #isaias with GDMI mean over Pensacola and AI average nearly on top of that. AW in good agreement with the AI suite guidance means #FLwx

92L likely to become a hurricane and threaten the central US Gulf coast late this week. Could see some weakening just before landfall with increasing shear and dry air. Interest along the central US Gulf coast should monitor closely.

We're still monitoring elevated rain chances for the second half of this week. Where this axis of heavy rainfall sets up in Texas will be refined in the coming days. For now, keep your rain boots close and check back for the latest updates in timing, location, and rain amounts.
