Huntsville, Ala. – Drivers and residents in Huntsville should prepare for more summer-like heat as September temperatures climb back into the low 90s starting Sunday. Prolonged warmth will impact daily routines, with limited relief at night as lows only fall into the mid-60s. Residents should limit outdoor work during peak afternoon hours and stay hydrated.
According to the National Weather Service in Huntsville, Sunday will bring mostly sunny skies and highs near 90. Winds remain calm, offering little cooling relief. The heat continues through Wednesday with daily highs of 91° and abundant sunshine. Clear skies at night mean temperatures only dip into the mid to upper 60s.
Motorists traveling on I-565 and other busy roadways should watch for heat-related vehicle issues such as overheating, especially during midday traffic. Outdoor events and sports practices may also see higher heat stress, so coaches and families are urged to schedule breaks and provide shade when possible.
While September has begun to feel like fall elsewhere, North Alabama holds onto summer. Power demand may increase as air conditioners run steadily through midweek. Residents should check cooling systems and be mindful of energy use during peak hours.
The stretch of hot, dry weather shows no sign of changing until late week, when slightly cooler air may ease conditions. Updates will be issued if temperatures climb further or if heat advisories become necessary.
