Location, Location, Location

Whether you’ve seen rain today all depends on where you are. Some have seen a lot and got a flood advisory out of it. Some haven’t had a drop. Rain totals as of 11:12 am (Radar Estimates, NOT Observations): read more

Storm Chances Return Saturday-Monday

If you slept through the storms early this morning, grats. The lightning output was pretty incredible, and we saw a brief wind gust that damaged a tree or two in S Brentwood.

Decent rain amounts too, especially in central Williamson Co. read more

Dry Streak Comes To An End This Weekend

Rain will be a welcome sight to many this weekend…unless you have outdoor plans. Latest U.S. Drought Monitor has us as “abnormally dry.” Sounds right.

Hi-Res Models, which are just coming into view, generally agree that scattered showers and storms will arrive Sunday morning. That’s about all we can get from those models right now….because that’s as far out as they go. The lower-res models pick up from there and keep rain off/on all day Sunday into Sunday night. read more

Late Night for the Swifties, Warm Temps, Scattered Storms

Word is the Swifties had a late night. Our correspondents Amy and Catherine reported it was declared an official rain show. Described as “iconic” and “memorable.” All’s well that ends well. read more

Couple of Small Rain Chances Next Week

Models are having a hard time with rain chances over the next few days, but it appears there are two windows of opportunity for rain next week.

  • Overnight Sunday into early Monday morning – Could get a thunderstorm or two, but mostly just showers, if anything.
  • Monday night into early Tuesday morning – Another relatively small chance for rain. No big deal.

We’re going to keep an eye on the end of the work week. A somewhat organized system could come together to our west and come through here late week. Way too early for details, but we 👀 any system that can get organized this time of year. read more

Overnight Freezes Continue, Rain Returns Mid-Week

🥶Hard freeze tonight and Sunday night. Regular ole freeze Monday night. Early blooms ain’t gonna like it.

I think I’m going to just cover everything with bedsheets and leave it for 4 days. It’ll look like a yard sale, but I don’t care. lol read more

It’s Gonna Freeze

Low temperatures will be below freezing for the next four nights or so. At least a couple of these freezes will be “hard freezes.” Protect any landscaping/plants that has been overeager in past weeks. read more

I Broke A Rule Today...Sorta

Those of us who’ve been around Nashville for a while know that planting stuff before tax day is really just a demonstration of your lack of self-control. This describes me perfectly. I’m well aware that those green graph bars up there show two nights of sub-freezing temperatures, but I’m ready to get on with things, for the love. On the bright side, the only things I planted were fairly hearty shrubs. They should be alright. But, really, let’s get on with it. read more

‘Twas A Bit Less Windy Today, Rain-Free Til Wednesday

As they say, some of the prettiest weather occurs after a significant storm, and that we had.

Yesterday’s thunderstorms ended up not really being the main story. While there was wind damage associated with the storms themselves, we made it out without any tornadoes locally. Most of the wind damage of the day came after the storms departed and unfortunately, claimed a couple of lives here in Middle Tennessee. That’s news we certainly hated to hear. read more
