FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR ALABAMA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HUNTSVILLE AL
202 PM CST WED DEC 24 2025
DISCUSSION
LOW-LEVEL SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW (IN PLACE ACROSS THE TN VALLEY THIS
AFTERNOON) WILL PERSIST THROUGH FRIDAY, WITH A GRADUAL INCREASE IN
WIND SPEEDS PREDICTED BEGINNING THURSDAY NIGHT AS AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE SHIFTS EASTWARD INTO THE MID-MS VALLEY. THIS
CONFIGURATION WILL MAINTAIN A WARM AND INCREASINGLY MOIST AIRMASS,
WITH FOG DEVELOPMENT ANTICIPATED LATER TONIGHT AND A TRANSITION
TO OVERCAST LOW STRATUS CLOUDS FROM THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY. ALTHOUGH
DRIZZLE WILL BE POSSIBLE AT TIMES (BENEATH THE STRATUS LAYER)
CHANCES FOR LIGHT SHOWERS WILL NOT INCREASE UNTIL FRIDAY
AFTERNOON/EVENING (WHICH IS WHEN A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL STALL TO
OUR NORTHWEST). SMOKE DISPERSION WILL BE IN THE FAIR RANGE
TOMORROW, WITH MIXING HEIGHTS OF 3500-4000 FT AND TRANSPORT WINDS
OF 10-15 MPH. HOWEVER, AS TRANSPORT WINDS STRENGTHEN FRIDAY,
DISPERSION WILL IMPROVE TO GENERALLY GOOD. IT STILL APPEARS AS IF
A WARM/HUMID WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE UPCOMING
WEEKEND, FOLLOWED BY A STRONG COLD FRONT THAT WILL BRING WETTING
RAINFALL SUNDAY NIGHT AND A MUCH COLDER/DRIER AIRMASS NEXT WEEK.
FOG POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS: IF SKIES REMAIN PARTIALLY
CLEAR AND SOUTHWEST WINDS SUBSIDE, CONDITIONS WILL BE FAVORABLE
FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FOG BEGINNING THIS EVENING. THE FOG COULD
BECOME WIDESPREAD AND LOCALLY DENSE EARLY THURSDAY MORNING.
POTENTIAL FOR RED FLAG CONDITIONS: NONE AT THIS TIME.
