After a few cool mornings last weekend, temperatures are on the rise this coming week! A strong southerly wind will help blow warm air and moisture into the area. Winds on Monday will be sustained 10-15 mph, with occasional gusts of 20 mph possible.
This will help warm temperatures into the upper 60s by Monday afternoon. Some places will be lucky to reach 70 degrees.
If you are someone who likes above average temperatures, I have great news for you. With continued winds this week out of the south-southwesterly will lead to a push of warm air into the region. With this warm air in place, high temperatures on Wednesday and Thursday are expected to be close to 80 degrees! These temperatures will be 20 degrees warmer than what we typically see for this time of year; the average high in Huntsville is 59 degrees.
The tops predicted by the Weather Authority for next Wednesday and Thursday will be near record highs. For Wednesday, records for Fayetteville, Huntsville and Muscle Shoals currently range from 73 to 79 degrees. If Huntsville is able to reach 80 degrees, it will break the old record by 3 degrees.
When we look at Thursday, it will be a day to watch if we actually break a record. We expect highs to hit 80 degrees for some while others only approach 80 degrees. If Huntsville is able to reach 83 degrees on Thursday, it would tie the old record set in 1996.
