Shower Chances For the Next Week, Gloominess Ensues
Rain during the daylight hours today is unlikely but more will encroach on the area late tonight/overnight. Latest observations at the airport have us near a balmy 69ºF at 11AM under mostly cloudy skies. The dew point is only ~9ºF lower at 60ºF, meaning moisture return from the south is definitely in play. You will feel the southerly breeze today, too, gusting as high as 20-25 mph, based on latest HRRR model data.

Plans to trek down to the Music City Center for the Nashville International Car Show or maybe to the Titans game on Sunday? Take the rain gear, just in case. No need to bundle up, though!
