Huntsville, AL – Skies stay gray across the Tennessee Valley today as Alabama braces for a brief round of weekend rain followed by a sharp early-week temperature plunge.
According to the National Weather Service in Huntsville, clouds will linger through Saturday, with highs in the mid-40s to upper 40s and just a slight 10–20% chance of light drizzle in southeast Alabama this morning. Conditions remain mostly dry through the evening, but light rain and mist return Sunday, especially north and east of Birmingham.
Sunday highs will climb into the low 50s, with off-and-on rain developing by evening. A cold front sweeps through Sunday night into early Monday, bringing drier air and falling temperatures. By Monday morning, readings drop into the upper 20s, and afternoon highs may not escape the low 40s under clearing skies.
This pattern signals a quick early-December cold snap, with overnight lows Monday night dipping into the 20s across Huntsville, Decatur, and Athens. The good news? Sunshine and slightly warmer temperatures return Tuesday, when highs rebound into the upper 40s to low 50s.
