DISCUSSION
SCATTERED TO MORE NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS NORTH OF THE
TENNESSEE RIVER SHIFT SOUTH OF THE TENNESSEE RIVER TONIGHT. 20
FOOT WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE TODAY. TRANSPORT
WINDS IN NW ALABAMA WILL BE FROM THE NORTH AROUND 5 MPH AND
FURTHER EAST FROM THE S OR SW BETWEEN 5 AND 10 MPH. MIXING HEIGHTS
WILL CLIMB TO BETWEEN 4000 AND 5000 FEET IN THE AFTERNOON.
MINIMUM AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WILL REMAIN ABOVE 60
PERCENT.
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE OVER MOST OF
NORTHERN ALABAMA ON THURSDAY, WITH HIGHER COVERAGE EXPECTED IN OUR

TRANSPORT WINDS WILL BE FROM THE NORTH BETWEEN 5 AND 10 MPH.

CLOUD COVER IN NW ALABAMA COULD OCCUR ALLOWING FOR SOME FOG
DEVELOPMENT.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE ARE EXPECTED DUE TO WET
FUELS IN PLACE AND HIGH AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES
FORECAST.
