NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HUNTSVILLE AL
149 PM CDT TUE SEP 22 2026
DISCUSSION
A SURFACE TROUGH WILL REMAIN NEARLY STATIONARY ACROSS NORTHERN AL
FROM THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY, SEPARATING A SLIGHTLY
COOLER/DRIER AIRMASS TO ITS NORTHWEST FROM A WARM/MOIST AIRMASS TO
ITS SOUTHEAST. THIS BOUNDARY WILL INITIATE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS BOTH TODAY AND TOMORROW, AND WITH STORMS EXPECTED TO
SPREAD SOUTHEASTWARD WITH TIME THE HIGHEST PROBABILITIES FOR
WETTING RAINFALL WILL BE ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN FIRE WEATHER
ZONES. THE TROUGH WILL BEGIN TO SHIFT WESTWARD ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT
(PERHAPS RESULTING IN A FEW SHOWERS REGION-WIDE), BUT AS LOW-LEVEL
FLOW VEERS TO THE E-SE ON THURSDAY, A DRIER AIRMASS WILL BE
ADVECTED INTO THE REGION FROM THE EAST (REDUCING CHANCES FOR
PRECIPITATION). SMOKE DISPERSION INDICES WILL RANGE FROM FAIR IN
THE EAST TO GENERALLY GOOD IN THE WEST ON WEDNESDAY, WITH A
GENERAL IMPROVEMENT IN DISPERSION EXPECTED REGION-WIDE ON
THURSDAY.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: THE COVERAGE OF FOG WILL BE
LIMITED EACH OF THE NEXT FEW MORNINGS BY THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOW
STRATUS CLOUDS. HOWEVER, VISIBILITY REDUCTIONS MAY OCCUR IN
ELEVATED TERRAIN.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
