Huntsville, AL – After a stretch of warm, sunny days, residents across the Tennessee Valley should prepare for a shift in weather by the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service in Huntsville, dry and pleasant conditions will persist through Friday, with daytime highs ranging from the upper 60s to mid-70s. However, beginning Saturday afternoon and intensifying into Sunday evening, rain chances will increase to 60%, accompanied by gusty winds between 20-30 mph.
Windy conditions may impact outdoor activities and unsecured objects. Forecasters urge residents to secure patio furniture, decorations, or trash bins ahead of the weekend.

While the chance of severe storms remains low, the potential for strong gusts and localized downpours could disrupt travel and outdoor plans. NWS officials recommend checking for updated advisories as the weekend approaches.
Historically, spring weather in the Tennessee Valley can turn quickly. Residents are encouraged to monitor alerts and stay prepared for changing conditions.
