Huntsville, AL – North Alabama residents can expect another stretch of hot, dry, and sunny conditions as summerlike weather lingers into the upcoming week.
According to the National Weather Service Huntsville, temperatures will remain well above normal with highs ranging from the upper 80s to low 90s through Thursday, September 18. Overnight lows are expected in the lower to mid-60s, offering limited relief from the daytime heat.
Forecasters noted that Sunday will bring highs between 85 and 92 degrees, with temperatures climbing further as the week progresses. By Wednesday and Thursday, Huntsville and surrounding areas could see highs topping out between 87 and 93 degrees.
Meteorologists emphasized the importance of heat safety despite the calendar showing mid-September. Prolonged exposure to the sun can still lead to dehydration, heat exhaustion, or other health risks. The NWS recommends staying hydrated, limiting strenuous outdoor activities during peak afternoon hours, and checking on vulnerable individuals such as children and older adults.
The extended dry spell also means little to no rainfall relief is expected. The clear skies will make for ideal outdoor conditions, but residents are urged to take precautions when spending time outside.
