Nothing but clear skies as we head into our Wednesday Evening. Perfect night to look at the stars if you are into that sort of thing.
Temps will fall pretty quickly once the sun sets, reaching the mid 70s by 9 PM before heading down into the mid 60s overnight.
Current Radar
The temperature/dew point grids look great for a night outdoors with temperatures in the 70s by 7pm and the dew point in the lower 60s. Humidity levels will feel nearly non-existent compared to what we’ve had.
Overnight, we’ll drop down into the lower 60s!
On a scale of 0-100%, we’re only expecting about 10% cloud cover on Wednesday. This means that much of Tuesday’s weather carries over…lots of sunshine and dry air over the region will make playing (or working) outside feel more “bear”able.
No problems in regards to rain, really through the entire week/weekend. Afternoon highs will top out in the low 90s with a gradual increase in clouds later in the week.
Those attending the Pilgrimage Festival this weekend should be in good shape! As long as our system out west isn’t *magically forecasted to speed up by about 36 hours*, Saturday and Sunday look fine.
From NWS Nashville:
Nashville averages 47 days with 90 degrees and above. The most ever is 96 days back in 1954. The ranking goes like this for days 90 and above: 1954...96 most ever 2010...82 1980...82 2016...81 so far 1952...81 1941...81 1944...79 1953...78 1936...78 1925...78 1988...75 2007...74

Into tonight, those marvelous weather conditions continue as we head into the evening hours. Clear skies through the night with temps dipping down into the mid 60s overnight.
Did you like Monday? Then you’ll like Tuesday. Expecting for much of the same as we head into tomorrow. Only difference being that our high temps could get a little warmer than on Monday.
Most of it is going south of us, but sometime before midnight, expect a little light rain to fall. The HRRR model illustrates:
Otherwise, we are shenanigan-free.
Steady sunshine returns Monday. The dewpoint will stay in the low 60°s for more than 48 hours.
We will accept your “when’s it ever going to stop being so hot” complaints Thursday, when fall formally starts.
Looks like high pressure to our east late in the week will send us more heat and humidity for the weekend. And, yeah, there may be some rain, too. But, that’s to be determined. From NWS-Nashville:
Our next shot at rain could hold off until the end of next weekend as models are fairly consistent in showing a large upper level system pushing out of the Pacific Northwest Friday and its cold front reaching us by Sunday night or Monday of next week. However, even with the model continuity that far out, will carry only a chance probability of precipitation as this is Day 8 and things will likely change by the time we get there.
Especially south of 40:
Again, this is likely an overestimate. We won’t know for sure until the Cocorahs data starts showing up with actual measurements.
Rain and clouds are lined up along this purple line. This is an infrared satellite view, showing that the rain has finally moved east of us this morning:

Anyone who experiences rain later today will cool down immediately into the mid-upper 70s. Nice, right?
In case you don’t see rain, your temperature stair-step into the upper 70s will be a little slower, but we’ll get there. A comfortable night ahead in the temp. department, but it will remain humid.
Current Radar
We currently have some scattered showers wanting to rain on our afternoon parade.
Luckily we aren’t expecting for most of us to see any showers, but for those who don’t win the no rain lottery, showers should be brief and won’t do a whole lot.
Current Radar
Showers that developed across the state today will quickly fall apart by evening. Temperatures will fall into the upper 70s after sunset, but the humidity won’t relax quite as much. Dew points in the mid to upper 60s will continue to make the air feel “soupy”.
