Huntsville, Alabama – Hot, sticky air and daily thunderstorm chances are making a stubborn return across North Alabama, with rain coverage and heat expected to ramp up through Monday. Scattered storms could spark by late afternoon each day, especially Sunday and Monday, as humidity builds and highs hover around 90 degrees.
According to the National Weather Service in Huntsville, storm chances range from 10% to 30% today through Sunday but rise to 50% by Monday, particularly in the Tennessee Valley. Lightning, brief downpours, and gusty winds remain the primary threats, although severe weather is not expected at this time.
Localized showers could lead to slick roads during evening commutes across Madison, Limestone, and Morgan counties. Outdoor events in cities like Florence, Decatur, and Scottsboro should monitor radar closely, especially over the weekend. Residents are urged to stay weather-aware, avoid flooded roadways, and take shelter during any lightning activity.
The stretch of 80s-to-low-90s highs will persist through early next week, with warmer and wetter conditions likely to follow by Tuesday. Storm chances may increase further midweek.
