Alabama Forecast Turns Calm and Warm With No Snow or Severe Threats Expected as Highs Push Toward 70 Next Week
ALABAMA — After a stretch of winter chatter online, the latest outlook suggests Alabama is headed into a quiet and warmer-than-normal period, with no major hazards expected in the near term and temperatures climbing high enough next week to potentially make it the warmest week so far this year.
No Major Weather Threats Expected Over the Next Seven Days
The update shared with the graphic states Alabama is not expected to experience snow, ice, heavy rain, flooding, tornadoes, or other high-impact events over the next seven days—pushing back on “doom posts” that sometimes spread rapidly on social media when a broader U.S. pattern looks active.
In other words, while other regions may be watching storms, Alabama’s near-term forecast signal is trending calm.
NOAA Temperature Outlook Shows Above-Normal Trend Feb. 13–19
The included 8–14 day temperature outlook from NOAA, valid February 13–19, 2026 (issued February 5, 2026), shades a large portion of the central and eastern United States—including the Deep South—in the above-normal temperature category.
For Alabama, that supports the idea of a warm-up becoming established as mid-February approaches, with a better chance for springlike afternoons rather than winter cold snaps.
Warmest Week of the Year So Far Could Bring 70s to Many Areas
The forecast discussion notes that next week may shape up to be the warmest week so far this year, with afternoon highs reaching 70 degrees or higher in many parts of the state.
Even if mornings still start cool, the signal is for improving comfort and fewer weather-related disruptions—good news for travel, outdoor work, and day-to-day plans.
What Residents Should Keep in Mind
A calm forecast doesn’t mean weather can’t change later, but the key message here is that Alabama’s current outlook favors warming temperatures and low risk for winter or severe hazards in the immediate week ahead. For many residents, that means a chance to catch up after recent cold shots without having to plan around ice or storms.
