National Weather Service Huntsville AL
243 PM CDT Thu Aug 21 2025

.DISCUSSION...

Light transport winds and increasing chances (30-50%) for
thunderstorms will lead to fair smoke dispersions through
Saturday. Wetting rains will be possible within any shower/storm
activity as fuels are already wet in most locations due to
rainfall earlier in the week. Drier and cooler conditions are
forecast after this weekend.

Fog potential over the next few days: None at this time.

Potential for Red Flag Conditions: None.
