HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT ) — After a cloudy and dreary weekend across the Tennessee Valley, we will see a shift in the weather pattern supporting sunshine and mild temperatures this week!
It will be a mild and sunny Presidents’ Day as high pressure builds into the region. We will begin the day with some clouds, but as drier air filters into the area, clouds will break, allowing for plenty of sunshine by the afternoon!
Winds will first be out of the northeast, then shift out of the south by the afternoon. Highs are forecast to reach the mid to upper 60s by the afternoon.
By the second half of the week, above the surface, an upper-level ridge will build into the region. This will allow for warmer air and moisture to filter into the region by Wednesday.
In Huntsville, highs are forecast to warm into the low to mid and upper 70s. This will not only be well above normal for this time of year but near-record. With a forecast high of 77 degrees on Thursday, we could tie the record set in 2018…
