FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR ALABAMA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HUNTSVILLE AL
1244 PM CDT MON OCT 12 2026
DISCUSSION
DRY AND WARM WEATHER WILL PREVAIL THROUGH MIDWEEK. DRY AIR ALOFT
HAS THE POTENTIAL TO MIX DOWN TO THE SURFACE, LOWERING DEW POINTS
DURING THE DAY. THIS WOULD RESULT IN MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY
VALUES IN THE 40-50% RANGE FOR MOST LOCATIONS AND POTENTIALLY INTO
THE 30 PERCENT RANGE FOR SOME SPOTS, ESPECIALLY TODAY AND
TUESDAY. WHILE THIS WOULD NOT LOWER MINIMUM RHS TO CRITICAL
THRESHOLDS, IT'S STILL WORTH NOTING. MIXING HEIGHTS ARE EXPECTED
TO REACH BETWEEN 3000-5500 FEET BOTH TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. IN
ADDITION, WESTERLY TRANSPORT WINDS AROUND 10 MPH OR LESS WILL BE
COMMON THROUGH MIDWEEK. LASTLY, DAYTIME DISPERSIONS ARE FORECAST
TO BE FAIR TO GENERALLY GOOD EACH DAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: LOW TO MEDIUM CHANCE OF FOG
TONIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY MORNING.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
