Huntsville, AL – Residents in North Alabama and Southern Middle Tennessee should prepare for hot and potentially stormy conditions this afternoon, according to the US National Weather Service in Huntsville.
Forecasters say temperatures will climb into the upper 80s and possibly low 90s by late afternoon. A 10–20% chance of storms exists through sunset, though most areas will remain dry.
According to the National Weather Service, any storms that do develop could bring heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, and gusty, damaging winds. These storms are expected to be isolated, meaning not everyone will see activity, but those who do may experience hazardous conditions.
The weather service advises residents to remain aware of rapidly changing conditions this afternoon and evening. Outdoor activities may be impacted in spots, especially in areas where storms briefly intensify.
The region remains in a typical late-summer weather pattern, with heat fueling isolated thunderstorms. Forecasters stress that while the overall chance for storms is low, any that form could be strong enough to cause localized impacts.
Residents are encouraged to monitor local updates and exercise caution if storms approach.
