FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR ALABAMA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HUNTSVILLE AL
144 PM CDT FRI MAY 29 2026
DISCUSSION
LOW STRATUS CLOUDS WILL PERSIST ACROSS NORTHERN AL FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON, WITH LIGHT RAIN EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA AS CONVECTIVE
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS IMPACT THE EAST. THE COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE REGION-WIDE THIS EVENING, AS
CONVECTION SPREADS NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE REGION FROM MS AND
INTERACTS WITH AN EASTWARD-MOVING OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. IN THE WAKE OF
THIS ACTIVITY, VERY LOW STRATUS CLOUDS AND FOG ARE ANTICIPATED
EARLY SATURDAY MORNING, WITH A FINAL ROUND OF WIDESPREAD
SHOWERS/STORMS EXPECTED TO OCCUR ALONG A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT
SATURDAY AFTERNOON. SURFACE WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTHEAST ON
SATURDAY EVENING, USHERING A SLIGHTLY DRIER AIRMASS INTO THE
REGION AND LIMITING AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND STORMS TO THE WESTERN
HALF OF THE REGION ON SUNDAY. SMOKE DISPERSION INDICES WILL BE
FAIR TOMORROW, BUT SHOULD IMPROVE SLIGHTLY ON SUNDAY DUE TO AN
INCREASE IN BOTH MIXING HEIGHTS AND TRANSPORT WINDS. IN THE
EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST, IT STILL APPEARS AS IF A
TRANSITION TO A DRIER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE ON MONDAY, WITH
CHANCES FOR WETTING RAINFALL REMAINING IN THE 10-20% RANGE THROUGH
THE END OF THE WORK WEEK.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: CONDITIONS WILL BE
FAVORABLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF WIDESPREAD FOG EARLY TOMORROW
MORNING (SOME OF WHICH COULD BE LOCALLY DENSE). SIMILAR CONDITIONS
WILL EXIST DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS SUNDAY AND MONDAY.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
