FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR ALABAMA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HUNTSVILLE AL
248 PM CDT WED SEP 17 2025
DISCUSSION
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK
SOUTHWARD ACROSS NORTHERN AL THIS AFTERNOON, BUT SHOULD DISSIPATE
AROUND SUNSET. CLEARING SKIES (IN THE WAKE OF ANY LINGERING LATE
AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING PRECIPITATION) AND CALM WINDS WILL SUPPORT
THE DEVELOPMENT OF FOG OVERNIGHT (ESPECIALLY IN LOCATIONS THAT
RECEIVE WETTING RAINFALL LATER TODAY). DRY WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT, AS AN UPPER-
LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE ALIGNED ACROSS THE TN VALLEY,
BUT A FEW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY RETURN TO WESTERN
PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA ON FRIDAY AS A SURFACE TROUGH SHIFTS
SOUTHWESTWARD INTO THE REGION. MIN RH VALUES WILL BE IN THE
40-50% RANGE TODAY, BUT WILL FALL SLIGHTLY INTO THE 35-45% RANGE
THURSDAY/FRIDAY. SMOKE DISPERSION WILL BE GENERALLY GOOD BOTH
DAYS, WITH TRANSPORT WINDS OF 5-10 MPH AND MIXING HEIGHTS OF 8-10
KFT. THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST WILL FEATURE A
CONTINUATION OF WARM TEMPERATURES THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK, WITH
ONLY VERY LOW CHANCES FOR RAIN MONDAY-WEDNESDAY.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: CONDITIONS WILL BE
FAVORABLE FOR FOG DEVELOPMENT EARLY THURSDAY MORNING (ESPECIALLY
IN LOCATIONS THAT RECEIVE WETTING RAINFALL TODAY). PATCHY FOG WILL
BE POSSIBLE IN VALLEYS AND NEAR LARGE BODIES OF WATER
FRIDAY/SATURDAY MORNINGS.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
