From the Editor: We’ve heard from several who are in the process of healing from the tornado that came through our city. Thank you for sharing your stories with us. We read them all. We’re right there with you. One theme we’ve picked up on is that the kids are also going through processes of grief as well. Maybe your kids are. Below you’ll read about a low chance of severe weather in the forecast. We know, while the chance of severe weather is low, that will cause some concern among those (including kids) who are processing last week. Perhaps you’re looking for some resources to help guide your kids through what happened. Below are some links that came our way. We hope they help.
We’ve gotten a break from the rain for a few hours this afternoon. Clouds will stick around, so not much sun there for us today, but regardless we’ll be up to 64° for the high. Strong to severe storms will move in from the west this evening. Here’s more on that from the NWS-Nashville:
Up to 46 this afternoon with sunshine.
But to our NW another batch of precip is en route, ETA 7-9 PM. Here’s the HRRR model predicting rain with a few snow flurries around midnight:
No meaningful accumulation expected except maybe at the highest elevations. It may not even snow (it could just be rain).
We’ll steer clear of the rain today. It’ll be mostly cloudy, but the sun will still peak through a few times. Slightly above average temperatures this afternoon and for the high, 57°. A couple showers are possible moving into the evening, but most of us will stay dry tonight.
All in all, not too bad of a day weather wise. There will be plenty of sun to go around this afternoon, although it will be cool. Only up to 43° for the high.
Saturday comes with more sun and a bit warmer temperatures. Closer to average for this time of year, 53° for the high. We’ll continue the short-lived dry trend through Saturday as well.
I’m not saying today is going to be a complete washout, but you’ll definitely need the umbrella off/on for sure. Showers will continue to move in from the west into this evening. 62° for the high. Here’s what the HRRR believes will happen through 11:00 pm tonight:
