Sunday, December 31, 2023 · Elan
The last day of 2023 will quite nice, with high temperatures in the mid 50s.
This handy dandy graphic from NWS Nashville shows the expected temperatures and wind chills tonight. If going out, make sure to bundle up.
Majority of next week looks dry, maybe some light rain Wednesday but those chances look iffy.
If you feel like this year has been warmer and drier than normal, you’d be correct.
Nashville is going to finish 2023 with 39.06" of rainfall, which is 11.45" below normal. It's the first time since 2007 that we failed to reach 40". Since August 1, we have measured just 10.89" — the driest August-to-December period since 1980.
