FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR ALABAMA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HUNTSVILLE AL
149 PM CDT SAT OCT 3 2026
DISCUSSION
AN APPROACHING UPPER-LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL WORK IN CONJUNCTION
WITH A NEARLY STATIONARY SURFACE BOUNDARY (AND ABUNDANT TROPICAL
MOISTURE) TO BRING PERIODS OF RAIN AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS TO
NORTHERN AL THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING. AT THIS POINT, BOTH COVERAGE
AND INTENSITY OF PRECIPITATION APPEAR AS IF THEY WILL BE HIGHEST
FROM EARLY SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH LATE SUNDAY AFTERNOON, WHEN
WETTING RAINS ARE LIKELY FOR THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER,
STORM TOTAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE HIGHEST ACROSS THE
SOUTHEASTERN COUNTIES (1-1.5") AND SLIGHTLY LOWER TO THE NORTHWEST
(0.5-1"). STRENGTHENING N-NE FLOW WILL BEGIN TO PUSH A DRIER
AIRMASS SOUTHWARD INTO THE REGION EARLY MONDAY MORNING, WITH
AFTERNOON RH VALUES LATER IN THE AFTERNOON RANGING FROM 30-35%/NW
TO 45-55%/SE. SMOKE DISPERSION INDICES WILL BE IN THE POOR-
GENERALLY POOR RANGE TOMORROW, BUT WILL IMPROVE TO GENERALLY GOOD
ON MONDAY AS TRANSPORT WINDS INCREASE TO 10-15 MPH AND MIXING
HEIGHTS RISE TO 4500-5000 FT.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: PATCHY, LIGHT FOG MAY OCCUR
ALONG WITH PRECIPITATION AND LOW CLOUDS THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
